Is it love <br />Or is it lust <br />How can you tell <br /> <br />Do you love them <br />O just the fact <br />Of being in a spell <br /> <br />With love you're stuck <br />With lust you're struck <br />But can you tell them apart <br /> <br />How do you know <br />If It's in your mind <br />Or if it's in your heart <br /> <br />With love you'd do <br />Whatever it took <br />To take away their frown <br /> <br />With lust all you want <br />Is to please yourself <br />Even if it brings them down <br /> <br />It's easy to tell <br />Between the facts <br />The difference of lust and love <br /> <br />But how can you tell <br />Righ off the bat <br />If it's a puppy or a dove <br /> <br />Love and lust <br />Lust and love <br />Can't tell between the two <br /> <br />How can you tell <br />If it's a stage <br />Or if it's really true <br /> <br />2008<br /><br />Kimberly Wares<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/love-or-lust-26/
