What is life
Is it lying and deceit
Is it truth and love
Does anyone truly love us
Or is love just a way to the means of sex
Love is what you make of it
Most don’t try hard enough
Much easier to give in to temptation
To what the world offers us
Why be true
Why try forever
Take the money and run
Casual sex means nothing
Unless I do it
Then it is a hurtful sin
That’s the way life is
Hurt the one that loves you
And love the one that hurts you
I grow weary
I quit
you
win

Love one another-let God do the worrying,
Rodney

A very down poem but I loved these lines of wisdom....

                                  "Love is what you make of it
                                   Most don’t try hard enough"

Very simple but true!

Love gone bad can sure hurt a lot.  You have shown that well here.  It'll look up again when you are ready.  Good write.

All writing comes
by the grace of God.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
