Love is beautiful, fierce, and strong. |
|
An insatiable, all-consuming fire. |
|
A lion pacing on the red hot embers of desire. |
|
Love is a thirst that's never quenched, |
|
A sacred flame that can't be drenched |
|
By icy showers of sobriety |
|
Or a society |
|
Strangled by notions of propriety. |
|
So what kind of love is this, |
|
This love that dares not speak its name? |
|
This love that hangs its head in shame? |
|
Is this so-called love even worthy of its name? |
|
True love doesn't lie, |
|
It doesn't hide, |
|
And it will never be denied |
|
The right to sing its furious song |
|
In the sad, empty streets from dusk 'til dawn. |
|
Love laughs at fear |
|
And cries out its name for all to hear. |
|
Love is beautiful, |
|
Fierce, and loud. |
|
But most of all, |
|
Love is PROUD! |
