21st century love is love no more
It's just a compulsion
to quench your emotional
and sexual requisites.

To love someone is to love their soul
and all the imperfections that come with it.

You don't love me,
you love the idea of loving me.
You look at my eyes,
but never within it.
You understand my words
but not the silences between.

21st century love is love no more
It's an escape
from the mundane
and lifeless reality.
