Love wasn't There

By ilenia

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I took a trip to distant places, love wasn't there It seems to be absent no matter where I go, even in some friendly places with many familiar faces It makes one wonder where it disappears When you're not in it up to your ears What makes love so elusive It really is most exclusive We seek for this favor to gain Yet, who among us can explain What love is, not to be confused with lust Or when in marriage you put your trust I'm talking about an earthquake in the heart That will never be the same if you ever part Like, when together you make lyric and melody The kind you think will last an eternity That's what being in love is all about So why can't it last, what makes it run out?
