Love's Conviction

Love is just a four letter word
That stands for emotions we feel
A rush of adrenaline and brief happiness
Hormones that persuade us "it's" real
Love is something we heartily cling to
And succumb to its seductive conformity
We love to jump even if short lived
After this damn ideology
You want to believe there's one person out there
Who is sweet, loving, honest, and true
You want that "perfect movie love"
That's passionate and all that other bull shit too
And if you find that someone who's worthy
You force yourself to believe it's pure
You settle with them because it's comfortable and safe
Hoping that what you think is love will endure
Love is a word we've associated with meaning
And in the end a waste of time
Love is full of lying, stealing, cheating, and drinking
But it's worth being convicted of this crime.
