The word love is over used and as such has been diminished.
But is it?
Sometimes in the still
Of the night
I can not understand
The things people say or do
In the name of love
Love is kind
Why then are there
So many people
Hurting others in the
Name of love
Love does not envy or boost, it is not arrogant
If this is so, why do so many
Lovers cheat just to fuel
Their own egos
Only to lie in those who love them
Love never ends
Really?
How many are there with
Broken hearts?
Not only because those
They love desert them
But the love of a friend
Has left them alone
WHY?
Because it wasn’t love
Born of abiding faith
Love born in the knowledge
That the Living God
Is in your heart and soul
It was not love

Love is what it is. hat men and women do in the "name of love" ears no resemblance to the word itself. There have been passionate love affairs that culminated in marriage and each of them coveted the other until death claimed them both. On the other hand there have been wars i love's name and the daily intrigues and hurtful thin dune and said in the name of love. It is just what love it. We are the problem.
