Who can answer?
Who can say?
What it is,
This game we play?
Is it chemical,
What we feel?
Is it self-proclaimed?
Is it real?
Is it a balance or imbalance
Of hormones in the brain?
Or simply a way
To dull our pain?
Can we control it?
Can we choose?
In the game
You always lose?
Could it be
All made up?
Everything
Inside of us?
If there is
No forever
Why make ties
We have to sever?
I think of this
As I lay with you.
And wonder if love
Is really true.
