Love

four letters
one word
a word never truly felt
in the hearts of many
but shouted at tops of lungs
of unknowing souls
whose only purpose is I
I WANT
I NEED
I SHALL HAVE
and that word
so fragile
so vague
can only be felt
towards the self
ironic indeed
a fine line between
love and greed
exists
only to be
misunderstood
and trite.
i may never know
i may never feel
but i won't...
i won't
use it again
unless my soul knows
that it's real.
