A Word Used Too Often

love

don't let it fool you

it dances around and lets you fall to the ground

it makes gravity proud

 

love

it's a dangerous game

entices you with all that is nice

never preparing your back for the knife

 

love

a foolish thing to feel

it builds you up, so you ignore what is real

tricks you, like a lure on a reel. 

 

love

a beautiful lie

makes you think you can touch the sky

never revealing it's unbreakable tie

 

love

a word used too often

lost in translation

meaning forgotten
