Love To Lust: Love That Must Not Last

Love heals.
Lust kills.
Love is affection.
Lust is infection.

Love starts a goal.
Lust ends it all.
Love results fusion.
Lust leads to separation.

True love lasts.
Fake love- lust.
Love’s end product is us.
Lust’s end product is dust.

Love is god.
Lust is bad.
Love to lust:
Love that must not last.

thank you for your comment. It's well appreciated. Sorry if I made a wrong interpretation. To be honest this is how I perceive things as a youth. Thanks for your constructive criticism :-)
