Love Hurts
To many; love is all hearts and flowers;
a picnic, where it never rains;
infinite time spent, with a love, for hours;
where no one ever complains.
Such is the love of most people’s dreams;
but, nothing is farther from truth;
true love is not always what it seems;
sometimes, it’s austere and aloof.
Most, search for the love of their dreams;
but, dreams seldom come true;
passion can, sometimes, lead to extremes;
many marriages end in a coup.
What most people fail to understand;
is that love sometimes hurts;
love isn’t a feeling; it’s God’s command;
only God’s choice works.
The Master has a special love for us each;
one, which we might never choose;
love is more than passion; it also must teach;
one who can overcome the blues.
Love is a cauldron of conflicting passion;
hate and love; within each personality;
accepting God’s choice, is out of fashion;
but God’s choice is the only reality.
Many choose love, by chance, whenever;
such a choice, almost never works;
God chooses a love; that lasts forever;
only God understands love hurts.
