I highly dislike the word love but not the concept Because hearing others say I love you makes me feel inept And when some one doesn't say it back it feels like a theft and after the echo fades what's left? Was saying it right? It should be seen not heard since it shines so bright or felt like a wave of the ocean since it's just as strong as any stupid l word song Stronger actually At least eventually since over time it grows and rollercoasters through highs and lows While the word stays the same. Who's to blame? Whatever self proclaimed linguist smithed the word should be stripped of his name because it's some thing you feel not some thing you hear and saying it produces more fear So just show me my dear.
