Why love?

Why love?

Suffering or love
There is no more option
Why isn’t there a third?


Here is only suffering
It’s unwanted
I haven’t a love
It’s forgotten

I need the third!
‘Good.’ Said Satan.
‘Then follow the path.
Not the wide way,
then you will go to hell.
There is eternal suffering.’
Warned me, Satan.
