Analysis of The Hardest Part
The hardest part of love
You think it comes from above
It takes over every part
You think it fills your heart
The truth of love
Is it’s like a dove
Beautiful and pure
You feel secure
The reality of love
Just like a dove
You move too fast
You become the past
The timing of love
Is like a glove
Unyielding and tight
Take your time with love
Let the dove become a glove
The more it’s worn
The less forlorn
There will be sprinkles
There will be wrinkles
But in the end
You will have a forever friend
Be sure to take care
And always be fair
For if love is torn
It can’t be reborn
