We loved with a love that was more than love

For Carry On Tuesday

MUST IT BE LOVE?

WE LOVED our love to death; love stood no chance
WITH A LOVE like that, who needs romance?
THAT WAS MORE THAN any love could take
LOVE is not a game, for heaven’s sake

  7. I thought this was very good...the obsessive love is not a good thing. For goodness sakes!!

  8. I would go as far to say that obsessive love is not love at all.
