"How is love being measured?" That, I should tell you Naivety and ignorance is the best-est thing you can do For crooks and chouses plan to extort So you perceive pain and suffering as their last resort Do they kiss and tell their feelings bade? Or do they bound their affections and let it wane? Do they think of you and their hearts to you portrayed? Or do they think of you as an irritating lass with emotional bane? Time has nothing to do with petty things Never gave freedom, never gave wings In the most delusional sense, they cage your soul Starves you of attention, then cuts you down whole Love is never measured by distance For it goes on and leaves you, all throughout resistant I don't know what Love is, nor I am aware of it to be So pray to God, pray to Him for people like me. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Reply to: http://www.poetrysoup.com/poem/how_is_love_being_measured_587953
