A Tainted Love

A Tainted Love

Tainted Love, a definition of the Heart.

Painted Love, a vision that's far apart. 

Fainted Love, a feeling that always dies.

A Remaining Love is a love that never lies.


They say if you love someone then set them free,

Why set them free if it was a Love to Be.

If it doesn't come back to you then was it tainted?

Or do we imagine Love as always being painted?


Is Love a mirror that we only look in?

Or is love so tainted that we don't know where to begin?

The heart only knows what Love really means,

Tainted, Painted and Fainted Love just intervene .

Love For the Right Reasons

Love For the Right Reasons

Love doesn't build up your expectations
to only let you down.

Love doesn't live to tell you a lie.

Love doesn't hurt the heart it's in.

Love characterizes the person within.

Love doesn't justify wrong actions we make,

But love simlifies the losses we take.

Love has so many definitions that we don't understand,

That we take it for granted instead of in God's hand.

So next time you love, love for the right reason,

For when love comes again you won't miss the season.
