Even today, I still associate love with pain!

How can one claim to love yet hurts another?

How can one claim to love yet deceives another?

Doesn’t love breath?

Doesn’t love to think and feel?

If it doesn’t, then love doesn’t exist.

I associate love with tears,

the brewing of iron brews

and the meandering of hearts 

caused by the art of losing due to someone’s did, 

yet even today, I still associate love with tears, 

the lamentations and wrestling of thoughts till dawn never stops, 

decades pass by,

ocean storms and rises, yet it never consumes it.

I associate love with pain.

Tears fall, hearts wonder and minds un-comprehends

the blood of innocents shed through the fate of love,

innocents souls lament the un-endless evil things done by the living

even today, I still associate love with pain.
