Love is greed

Keeping another from life they may see,
Relinquishing self in hopes to believe,
Blind emotion and at times deceived
Combining ideals in hopes what is seen
compares with a scene
love is greed
Selfless, selfish, and obscene.
A craving disguised as only a need,
grown from less than a seed,
it floats on a breeze
moments of hazard and moments serene,
here and then gone, in less than a blink
we need it to breathe, we need it to be.
but love is a greed.
