Why

What is true love anyway?
Is it the things people do and say?

Is it hard to find?
Is love gone with no reason or rhyme?

Why is it so frustrating and hard?
Is the doorway to ones heart always barred?

Why do people say they love each other then cover up a lie?
Why do people yell detestable things to make each other cry?

Why don't people trust each other anymore?
Why do people say they hate each other and walk out the door.

People are so busy and avoid one another.
Why don't people seldom talk or reason with each other?

There is a love that you can find...
An unfailing love that is yours and mine.

Call upon Him if your lonely and in despair.
Christ is the one who gives unfailing love and who cares.
