WHAT IS LOVE?

Love is where; 
We promise each other the world 
Knowing we do not own a plot 
Promised each other buckets of love 
Knowing we do not own a cup
We promise each other stuff we are not sure of
We say without each other we can't live 
Yet to break each other's hearts we live
We say we can die for each other 
But we still live to cheat on each other 
We promised each other love 
Without even knowing the meaning of love 
Do we even know what is love? 
We say to each other, we can't sleep 
But to each other, we still explain dreams 
Without each other, we can't live 
Yet after a sundering, we still live 
Ouch! This is tough to believe 
Love is built on the meadow of lies 
And is furnished with lies 
Painted in the cloud of lies
Lovers live in that bungalow of; 
Wounded emotions and cries  
Knowing not where genuine love lies.
