love is pain
love is suffering
that is all i’ve seen of love

all you need is love, or so the beatles sang

love broke my heart
love stole my flame
that is the way of love

love will save the day, or so des’ree sang

love is a fool’s game
love is lame
that is the darkside of love

love rescued me, or so U2 sang

i wanted love to save the day
and rescue me

but love just laughed and buried me
