Love, the thing everyone tries to fin Some think it’s the absolute best But is it more then just a trick of the mind? It puts people to the test While some may be flying high, Happy without a fear, Others think it’s a pretty lie, As their feelings show in one little tear. Love, so clear in their eyes; It’s funny how everyone thinks they can see But what they really see is no more then a disguise. Pain followed by pleasure Hate followed by love Some think it’s a buried treasure And for some, it fits them like a glove. For others, it’s nothing but a joke Something felt by those who deserve it Seeing happy couples makes them choke, Or throw a painful fit. For some people, it’s meant to be A prize to be accepted But for people like me Its just a reminder of how often we’ve been rejected.

Bitterly Sweet
