Love
Love?
If you find it, keep it.
If you lose it, move on.
It's the sweetest poison, it kills slowly.
And the surest medicine, it heals slowly.
I am not lucky with love, it's too fragile.
Guess I don't handle it with care.
I love the sight of it, but hate to groom it.
I admire it from afar but hate to try it.
If I find love, I'll keep it.
If I lose it, I'll move on.
