Love is a messy business.
Insurance recommended
Can tear you down and strip you dry
Leaving you defenseless
Sometimes mistaken due to cruel intentions
Or good intentions in detention
Either way, keep it at bay.
But this may just be me being defensive
I've developed this defense mechanism
To keep my mind imprisoned
By thoughts of independence
And hopes of better vision
Cause loves known to be a sight to sore eyes
But it's only blurred my vision
