What is love?
A divine gift yearned for by mortal hands?
The ultimate fulfillment of human demands?
A special brand of comfort found in warm dinner plates?
The "happily ever after" every maiden awaits?
Is it always the X in the map of your mind?
An excuse to be hopelessly, foolishly blind?
What is love?
In the midst of what every twisted definition precedes
Lies a sight that transcends romanticized meant-to-be's
A catalyst for violence and pain and bloodshed
What use is of a soulmate if they are dead?
What is love?
Are thorns of the rose all there is to be found?
For not only such evil is "love" renowned
A force that trusts, hopes, perseveres
A silver lining prevails through all the tears
The gaze of a lover, the beauty of sonder
And I wonder I wonder I wonder
Because over cliffs and mountains and rugged terrains
Below the starry sky, drenched by unrelentless rain
In nooks and crannies of chocolate boxes
An object of countless paradoxes
From heart to heart, the same burning passion
Thereby echoes the very same question
What is love what is love what is love what is
Sometimes I'm not even sure if I know.
