Your Face Could Launch a Thousand Ships

Helens face launched a thousand ships Do you believe she desired a legacy such as this To be the center of a war All for a love that she could not control Many people live, die and fight for love It’s the strongest emotion that drives us on It makes do the craziest of things It inspires the songs we sing It’s far better than that feeling of hate But either one can leave disaster in its wake Love is powerful, love is strong Use it with care so that it does no wrong But as Helen of Troy found out That when you fall in love without a doubt It can cause empires to fall And can wreak havoc with us all So take care but never be afraid to share Love with those people for whom you care. 31/5/18
