Hopefully Hopeless

I heard once of this thing called love
A noun that was used sparingly

It's worth seemed high
So ventured, I,
To find out why
It carried not far

I came to find this thing called love
Was only used for one reason:

A hopeless thought
Most touched it not
When held, they fought
For it was not easy

I started thinking about this "love"
This word most dared not come across

It seemed so cool
Most said "You fool,
You're such a tool"
But I couldn't stop thinking

Deciding that this thing called love
Was something I'd give everything for

A desperate life
I'd live to find
A love that's mine
All in God's time
