LOVE
In a universe of endless possibilities,
Love blooms like the sweetest melodies,
With each passing moment, hearts entwine.
Love's so deep, it's simply divine.
Through stormy seas and skies of blue
Facing whatever comes into view,
There you find solace and peace,
Love continues to increase.
Like stars that dance across the night
Love burns with a radiant light.
In every smile, every touch, every word,
Love's symphony can always be heard.
So let love be our masterpiece,
Painted with passion, never to cease.
Forever intertwined,
Forever true.
ANGER
The rage,
That craves
Way to danger
And blunders.
Riot arises
And a lot of crises.
Self control is required,
For it to be controlled.
CARE/CONCERN
Most at times,
Strangers seem to care
More, about us
When we have friends
We have liking for,
They seem to leave us halfway
Most times,
The game in which we play,
Will have thorns.
So....expect the worst,
The unexpected will care,
This manner of concern will leave us marvelled.
LOATHE
And here it was,
Hidden LOVE,
Concealed JEALOUSY.
And so many were the VIPERS,
In our midst were they,
RIGHTEOUSLY CAMOUFLAGED.
And when their vessels were shaking,
Came an outpour of their BITTERNESS,
A display of RIDDANCE.
Still, they were cumbered with their WICKEDNESS,
Such is life's game,
Embraced by their LOVING GRAVES.
A story they planned on ending,
Is what they told in AGONY...
FAME
Beams of radiance,
Loins of success,
Are your clothing.
It may take time
for it to shine.
Just know,
You'll be a star one day
MY HAPPINESS, MY WICKEDNESS
And when men live with their flaws,
They gain courage to stand before men,
To speak the word but abideth not by it.
They speak compassion,
But live with loathe and wickedness.
Claim to be ushers in His temple,
Yet paint their lips black.
Oh!What a pity,
That man not ignorant,
Yet reluctant to tender justice with mercy.
