Defeated by being compared I know
This hallow trail keeps going lower
Waiting on a step from someone who'll never come
Those feelings and the timeless thoughts
The joys they say will come but are always fought
Here again we surely are
Wasting all our time on something that doesn't exist
Just reeling our pride in to spare the others heart
Words go unsaid day after day unspoken and detained
Without love there is no way
All the exit signs are on display
I have to run away

Poetry: Without love
by Sandra Lowen
POETRY: WITHOUT LOVE
Without love, the world cannot go ‘round
And lovers’ feet stay on the ground.
Baby kisses
A Feather in the Wind
Love to me is like a feather blowing in the wind
So many times within my reach, yet flying right out
by Tom Zart
WITHOUT LOVE
Life is simply a circus,
With too many fools on the stage.
There 's greed, fear and indifference,
As many hearts
by Lou Ruggieri
Directionless.
I've walked a million miles
In my own and so many other shoes
So many endless and twisting roads
But always
Who needs love anyway?
It's not like love's important
in the whole great scheme of things
Who really needs the closeness
