love will be your downfall
it will bring you to your knees
within that fortress you call a heart

love will be your demise
the reason behind your untouched desires
that you'll never reach
because they were never yours in the first place

love will tear you to shreds
just to become pieces in the wind
so you'll be carried to foreign ground
and forced to rebuild

love will be your murderer
because self will crumble
as your heart bleeds out
and all you can do is watch

love will be your downfall
but
will also be the reason for the **victory

Love is self less. Love is putting others before you. It is the end of selfish desires because you want to do more- be more- for others.
