Love...dead?

They say love has died.
If this is true,
why has no one cried?

Is it gone forever?
To return to us never?

Do you really believe this is true?
What in the world did they ever do to you?

My friend found the grave.
I just wish we had the chance
to save.

We are all given the chance
in the beginning.
So why don't we take it
and save ourselves all this begging?

I didn't want it to die,
and I don't think it did.
For it to have died,
it had to have really lived.

But most don't give it the chance;
they forget the steps of the dance.

I see it all around,
so why is it there in the ground?

It's the old couple
still holding hands.

It's the kids drawing hearts
together in the sand.

Fill me in on the story,
without the memento mori.

Did this person not believe enough,
and decided it was too rough?

Why not take another try
forgetting the tears they cry?

Cowardice is buried there,
not love.
It's still here,
alive and well,
never mind the tears.
