Love is Lethal
Years without close companionship or friendship
I could only sense grief
It’d slowly tear my heart piece by piece
I tried, I tried, I tried
To overcome the pain
But I could only perceive hell on earth
Through my sense of sight
So I distanced myself from society
I was silent, but lethal on the other hand
Like that word LOVE
Surprisingly the love I desired popped up
I felt as if my heart was physically restored
This may have boosted my self-esteem
However, my biggest opponent, time came into the picture
I was to go off to a distant place
Despite that factor, I could still feel love
Love may have been alongside of me
But one was to betray the other because of our lethality
Of course, I let my generosity override
And nature took its course
Grief stepped back into my life for a good purpose this time
It reminded me that grief slowly kills one’s spirit over time
And love gives you a stab in the heart that may heal
But leaves its mark
Love, I still think about you
But do you deserve another chance?
