Love is Lost

By Bruce Clifford

I see the signs all around me

Each warning shot across my bow

Truth and wisdom call out my name

This won't be the last time I know this somehow

You're not listening

You're not paying attention

What am I missing

This is not your latest invention

Treasure is lost

Treasure is found

Love has a cost

When you throw it around

It's not being mean

It's not being fair

Love is lost

And you don't seem to care
