So Swift
Love is nothing but a constant sense of sacrifice
It comes from paradise and costs double price
Taking it as animal spirit people take it as slice
It is virtue of the heaven not from hell just a vice
It is not a commodity which is sold on a shop
A virtue makes your head chop or takes to top
It is dawned on soul to pacify it drop by drop
Like a seed in the land of heart brings pure crop
Love when dawned on a saint he got lunar spill
He said love would be seen in three days as bill
First day he was cut in to pieces to prove his skill
Next day was burnt in to ashes to cater for drill
His ashes were thrown on a river to pacify as a gift
Love is nothing but a relation of good and bad's rift
If you have a pure heart go and dare to sift and drift
It travels with speed of light in seconds it is so swift
