Love’s In Need Of Love Today
When we’ve reach a point
Where those that we love the most
Hurt us the most
And cause us the most pain
Then we must know
That love’s in need of love today
Just to honor and celebrate our love
We are expected to extend an expensive gift
For a love that’s priceless
Love is in need of a face lift
When love becomes so obscene
That we find security in love
Based on Ivy League degrees
And trust in financial stability
Love is in a Great Recession obviously
For the love of God and religion
A person commits suicide
To seek martyrdom by killing
Innocent women and children
Obviously love in need of healing
I want to proclaim
“I love you!”
But I’m afraid to say
“I love you!”
Because love’s in need of love today…….
