Today's Love
Love
It hurts so bad, and things don't always go the way you want it.
Sometimes you feel like you're doing too much and taking that extra step.
Love
It consists of arguments, fights, make ups, and break ups.
And emotions like, anger, sadness, and depression.
And yet, we stay.
Love
It's this bittersweet phase that we go through.
Finding people we want to be in love with, finding that some feelings aren't mutual.
People dating because they are cool, popular, "sexy," and not because they like the other person.
Dating to keep your "status"... your role among your friends.
If this is the new "norm," then what is the actual meaning of this so called "love"?
I mean, I'd think that love consists of two people with passionate feelings for each other.
Seeing pass the flaws of one another.
Pleasing one another.
Showing love and affection.
But, that's not what today's love looks like.
Love
Today's "love" seems different.
You're cute, I'm cute.
We'd make a cute couple.
Lets be in love.
Love
You have the hottest new brands, and the cutest new kicks.
You're sexy, lets be in love.
Love
Other people talk bad about you, I think you're cute, but my friends don't like how you look.
Sorry, but we can't be in love.
Love
Since when is being sexy the only way you can find love?
Since when is popularity the only way you can find love?
Who defined the word "sexy"?
Sexy isn't wearing the freshest new kicks and hottest styles.
I know "sexy" as being intelligent, smart, and living life in your own skin while loving it.
Now, let me put on the latest style, well damn, call me sexy too.
Love
It has a meaning that has evolved over time.
The meaning of love will remain undefined.
And if I have to wear the newest, latest style,
Well, I guess this love that I'm waiting for isn't worth my time.
