Love is like a beautiful rose
That will soon wither away.
Love is like a performance show
That'll get booed off the stage.
Love is like a butterfly
That will get trapped in a net.
Love is when we don't know why
We're filled with so much regret.
Love can also be amazingly great,
Although no one has figured it out.
It may sometimes seem like love is simply hate,
But that's not what it's about.
Love is about getting along,
Caring about them more than you;
Like the lyrics to a love song,
Like a warm heart, kind and true.
Love is about smiles,
And tears as well,
But it's all worthwhile;
A blessing straight from Hell.
Heaven gives you some of it also,
The part that makes your heart fly.
This part is usually false though,
And it may cause you to cry.
Never rely on your heart alone,
For it may be cut with a knife.
Be cautious when leaving your comfort zone,
And you may find the love of your life.
Don't fall for anyone's sweet kiss,
Unless you know it's real and not stealth.
How can you possibly tell this?
Alas, you must find this out yourself.
