what is love

They say love is pure
but love sticks knives into my back
love has his cold hands gripping my hair
cutting my face
leaving me to stare

They say love is pure
but love has been sitting on my back trying to push me down
love has brought stones to increase its weight
sticks to break my trust

They say love is pure
but love has left me to drown
love has tide up my hands and ankles so that I can't escape-
only try

Love is not pure
so tell me what is love?
If not gentle as a rose-
ready to sting as you touch
