Question-

Question, what is love

I hear my friends, falling in and out of it

What is this emotion, which can so easily be lost and found?

These men it binds, to do great things

Much pain it can bring, like popped corn on a string

Such wonder and merriment, those who possess it claim

It is the bandit that they blame, for stealing their sense in this game

This game that they call love, that they fell into from above

That fate destined for their paths, till another comes along

Then they jump into the newest pond, another lover they bring

Just popped corn on a string, as I ask once more, what is this thing?

That can destroy reason and sense, making people seem dense  

This elixir that maddens and confuses, that turns world’s upside-down

The affected have no cure, head-over-heels that's for sure

As I ponder my friend’s plight, they stumble in their newfound ‘light’

The object of their desire... ‘Oh surely eternal’, this time

I’m sure it’ll be fine, until the next one comes fluttering by

Like a colourful butterfly, this ‘love’ is not eternal

But an illusion set to crumble, like milk in sand

How will this structure stand, with foundations so corrupt?

In this game they continue to play, lost in this maze they will stay

Unable to find the end, like a tugging on a string

Unsure from where it begins, like feelings this love brings

These feelings ambiguous travel on, along its length all along

At the end they are no wiser, they stumble on becoming misers

Refusing to let go and reason, claiming that would be the worst treason

They keep falling into these ponds of ice, like the knife onto the blind mice
