Love of today
Isn’t the same 
As it used to be. 
Love today 
Is awakened by money
Swag and status. 
Today’s love is controlled. 
It’s a choice,
Not a feeling. 
Affection is faked, 
Loyalty’s bought. 
It’s only when 
You’ve travelled enough, 
Through today’s love, 
That you’ll know, 
It is a mirage. 
Elders yearn for us, 
The younger ones, 
To have lived in their primes, 
The old times, 
When love was pure. 
Things change they say! 
So I guess love
Also changes
With times
