Love is all we need

I had this sick

notion in my head:

love is all we need,

love will help

me get through the life,

get through the plight;

and then I met you,

everything seemed bright.


In fact, brighter than bright,

my world turned breezy;

with love hanging in the air,

and air having your strong

essence, in turn,

every breath I took

made me intoxicated,

made me dizzy.

The notion in my head;

it commenced sounding

wiser.

Oh how I wish,

this dreamy state would

have lasted longer.

Longer than it did,

sweeter than it presented,

I would have been more than

obliged,

if you would have given

at least a fair warning,

a fair chance,

before shredding my

heart into

million parts.

I had this sick

notion in my head:

love is all we need,

love will help;

but failed to understand

that love is the root of

heartbreak;

heartbreak; the root of plight.



Ever heard of a devil

falling for his victim

and helping him

thrive?
