Today love means Tinder hookups

and Snapchat stories

it’s an emotion that can be bought

or fucked into someone

Love means more likes on Instagram

and more money in the bank account

I remember what love really meant

screaming at eachother, but never leaving

working through the problems together

love was intense, a passionate touch

that led to staying up all night

and promising forever

love was gradual

friends then dating then married

everyone came to celebrate the moment

when two lives were joined forever

love used to be the truth and now

love is just an excuse
