What and Why

The Velvet

I never begged it,

Never was I taught.

But I returned it for sure,

A debt that I was taught.

 

What is Love?

Never understood at all,

Still gave a muse,

Never got it return at all.

 

Should I expect it?

Never was I taught.

Is it only for divines?

And duty for nobles?

 

Is it when you are happy?

Or when you care none but them?

Was I only the unworthy?

Appears true, sadly.

 

It is meaningless I guess,

Unfair trade for comfort,

To escape cage of despair,

Oh love, am I the one insane?

    A questioning that dives deep into the origin and source of love. The where, why, when and how of this enigma of life. Lovely
