What Does Love Mean?

CST

If love can’t save us from war

If love can’t save us from hunger

If love can’t save us from pain

If love can’t save us from crime

However petty

However hurtful

However life-changing 

However murderous

If love can’t save us from all this

What can love save us from?

What can love give to us?

Is the word love a misnomer?

Does love exist?

And

What is love?

For we use the word so glibly

So pretentiously

What does love mean?

To you

And me

Do you love me

And have I found

Love

With you

I don’t know -

Anymore

I don’t know.

What does love mean?

    Love goes fishing...

      And sits waiting and waiting
      For a bite!!
