VOID OF LOVE

Stands to reason
You should know
Void of Love
You’re a dying soul
~~*~~
Songs about Love’s power
Stories of its fate
To never know
Its highs and lows
Before your life abates
Is a misfortune
Don’t you see
Void of Love
Life's a tragedy
~~*~~
Recall of its pleasures
Memories of its tears
Oh, everyday
I can relay
The comfort of him near
 
No way would I trade it
Avoid a precious thing
I have been blessed
Perfect, or mess
Sweet love beats everything
You stay alone
So negative
Void of love
To never live
~~*~~
 The greatest gift, in life, is love
You barely exist
That first kiss, pure tenderness
The passion that you’ve missed
The deep desire, the burning fire
A friend, the link, the trust
Is all lost, emptiness the cost
In a life that’s void of love
~~*~~
 Just being here
Is not enough
It's not life
Void of love
~~*~~
