Love and Bureaucracy

"Love and Bureaucracy"

We wrote our names on dotted lines,
Dreams entangled, hearts aligned.
But the world had rules we couldn't see,
A maze of love and bureaucracy.

We whispered vows beneath the sky,
Promises pure, no need to lie.
But paper trails and policies grew,
Testing love that once felt true.

Love and bureaucracy, a tangled fight,
Between the heart and the black-and-white.
Red tape binds what we hold dear,
Turning passion into fear.

Love and bureaucracy, a cruel divide,
Where feelings drown, and forms collide.
Yet through it all, I still believe,
In the power of love to break free.

They stamp approval, reject the rest,
They measure love like it’s a test.
Rules so cold, they’ve lost the spark,
Turning life into a question mark.

But our hearts beat outside their frame,
Unwritten rules, untamed flame.
No office desk or file can see,
The boundless strength of you and me.

Love and bureaucracy, a tangled fight,
Between the heart and the black-and-white.
Red tape binds what we hold dear,
Turning passion into fear.

Love and bureaucracy, a cruel divide,
Where feelings drown, and forms collide.
Yet through it all, I still believe,
In the power of love to break free.

What’s a stamp, what’s a rule,
To a love that bends every tool?
We’ll rewrite their books, redefine,
Break their system with what’s divine.

Love and bureaucracy, a tangled fight,
Between the heart and the black-and-white.
Red tape binds what we hold dear,
Turning passion into fear.

Love and bureaucracy, a cruel divide,
Where feelings drown, and forms collide.
Yet through it all, I still believe,
In the power of love to break free.

So let the world throw rules our way,
We’ll find a path, come what may.
Love’s not bound by policy,
It’s wild, it’s free, it’s you and me.
