To Fool In Love
What is love for and what does it do?
Why do we need it, and believe that it’s true?
A four letter word, that’s all that it is
Like “them” and “they”, and “that” and “this”.
We know that to care, is not just a word
To think that it is, would just be absurd
But to replace it with love is even worse
For they are the same thing, not at all diverse.
To say that you love is merely a way
Of saying you care, but in a deeper way
The people who know this, they are the kind
That don’t need that word stuck in their mind.
That word is then used, to blame for all
That four letter word suddenly stands tall
It’s suddenly strong, as if set in stone
And is said to lead to being alone.
So I now do believe, that love is a fake
Used to grab, an advantage to take
It is an illusion, love is not real
So make sure you think, before you do feel.
