Love VS Lust
Love is a deep emotion, only expressed within the heart.
To love with the eyes, is only lust, not love from the start.
Lust is often misunderstood, to be an feeling of loves emotion.
A feeble minds confusion, by a desperate preconceived notion.
Love takes time and isn't immediate, and feelings have to grow.
Lust is prompt with a sudden spark, where urges to start to flow.
Love comes from deep passion, accumulating within the soul.
Lust is a physical attraction, where you can lose all self-control.
Love is hard to come by, not just something you can obtrude.
Lust is love at first sight, where expectations are misconstrued.
Love is unpredictable, feelings could come, then quickly disappear.
Lust will leave you empty and incomplete, and feelings left unclear.
Lust is always predictable, one wants what they can or can't possess.
Love is hard to come by, one can become demoralized or obsess.
Love can come in many forms, which sometimes gets confused.
But when true love falls into place, don't let it get misused.
Lust is a temporary feeling, that could possibly be persuaded.
But love awaits and longs to find, a soul mate to be serenaded.
When you finally make that fall for love, stay tried and true.
Love can fade and fall out of place, if it's not attended to.
Lust after true love, for they both coincidentally coexist.
Inner beauty enhances outer beauty, incapable to resist.
Don't give into the flesh, and lust with your eyes, if love is what's desired.
To fall in love, is to search a soul, deep sought after passion is required.
