Love is a complex emotion desired 
Hunted by all, yet hard to find, define  
At the best of times  
At the rest of time, we indulge  
But it is at the worst of times   
That it is required to be defined by deeds 
Answers that fall into spaces in between     
Irrational sacrifice and tragedy   
Testing resolve struck on emotion feed  
It is at the worst of times  
That we are asked to define by deeds  
Name your number, take a place, to make a stand  
For all men can profess   
But few will be seen   
When the clock strikes   
The brave show love 
In deeds as roads walked on
Complexity embraced 
And the coward 
Ask for worded definition 
On the eleventh hour  
"are you being serious"
Are you F**king kidding me
On worded definition
"are you being serious"
Are you F**king kidding me
On worded definition

Words will never equate to love, but as you see, deeds will always show the truth of love. Very nice.
Love is definitely a complex emotion desired, well penned.
