Love is not a word 

to be thrown around

---

Sometimes is it used too freely

like it's a ticket to paradise

---

Love is a very deep

connection

It is something that is real

can almost be touched

It never goes away

---

Using that word can fill the soul

or tear it apart if it is not truly 

from the heart

---

When you learn that 

someone used the word

but did not mean it

It's like having an amputation

it hurts beyond belief

Feels like the wall 

you were leaning on

crumbles and you fall to the ground

Just from the miss use

of that sound

---

The journey back is

very painful

Because when you used

the word

You meant it...
