Love
Where have they gone?
The ones I loved from stories passed.
People who fought evil and wrong.
How did I know it would not last?
The question is not, “How far have we gone?”
The question is, “How far have we fall’n?”
Oh, man’s splendor has grown…
But friend, who is now on that throne?
I’ve met one or two.
Oh, they were nice.
They cared and shared,
But not more than twice.
Now, there is always hope.
But is there always love?
Their feelings seem so selfish.
True love can only come from above.
Is it too crazy?
Have I gone mad?
That love so amazing
Could exist in a world so bad?
There, there, it exists.
I’m pretty sure of that.
Only if you would love,
Then it would be a fact.
