Though love is free it bears a cost,
love has no worth if love is lost.
Please answer this do you agree?
It bears a cost though love is free.
To purchase love, how much to spend?
To shed one's blood with wine to blend.
The truth is this, it's from above,
how much to spend to purchase love?
For love to last it must be pure,
contains no blemish to endure.
To have a future there's no past,
it should be pure for love to last.
Love only gives it should not take,
'cause if it does that love is fake.
For love I think eternal lives,
it should not take, love only gives.
