Sometimes Love

Sometimes Love

isn't what we think

it might be.

 

Sometimes Love

isn't found where we

Think it is.

 

Sometimes Love 

is found within

rather than

 

without.

 

Sometimes Love

finds itself a verb

not a noun.

 

Sometimes Love

finds itself hidden

not allowed.

 

Sometimes Love

finds itself bruised

pushed down

 

wronged. 

 

 

Unrequited, assumed,

Sometimes Love

is abused

 

Held hostage to belief

Sometimes Love

is not true

 

Berated and beaten

Sometimes Love

isn't there

 

at all.

 

Sometimes Love, Sometimes not. 

The line is clear, and what you thought

might be love.
