Why is Love considered blind
But it's actions are always kind?
Why does it sweep us off our feet,
Is it because it's powerful and deep?
Why do others think it's contentious
And some say it's even dangerous?
They say Love surpasses everything
Except for one very important thing.
That love is not greater than God,
For the good book says He's our Lord.
So in essence, God's agape love
Is greatest because it comes from above!

Love is the greatest of human emotions.
She said
Are you losing your head?
Calm down
You need me right now
Breathe in, breathe out
let it out.

She said
Take your time
You gonna be fine
You need this therapy
let's talk about your day
Follow my advice
Just close your eyes.

She says something
I heard nothing
I began to laugh
And I let out a sigh
She laid her hands on me
And took control of me.

She said
Tell me your problems
I help you solve them.
I began to stress,
My emotions were a mess.
She touched my lower back
It felt like an electric shock
I began to say something
And told her everything
I felt like I was healing
Or was I developing a feeling?

She said
Lie on the bed.
Man she had some curves
And the relaxed my nerves
She had everything
But I could do nothing!
This was just therapy
And for me a very bad day!

What do you do when you start to develop feelings instead of healing?
When one woman cries somewhere
God sends storms the same afternoon
Torrential rain falls elsewhere
And Heaven pours down monsoon.

Whenever she's happy and smiling
Sun shines brightly in all dark places
life sprouts and plants start growing
Souls brighten and everything balances.
A woman gave me life ...precious!
Walk away
When he starts to beat
And make you weep.

Walk away
if he is cheap
and starts to hide and sneak.

Walk away
If he doesn't support you
but instead suppresses you.

Walk away
If he can't sleep
at night and starts to creep.

Walk away
if you're not appreciated
and your love starts to get underrated.

Walk away
When your love isn't reciprocated
proudly walk away and be respected.

Walk away
If he really doesn't know your worth
And not about relationship growth.

Walk away
Maybe Somebody else deserves you
Somebody who will call you boo.

Walk away
If he will not remain loyal and committed,
Take you seriously and be dedicated.

Even though you tried to hold it together
walk away if you see no future in any brother.

Walk away
If you live in fear
before you drown in tears.

Thank you again for making me realise how strong I am,and for reminding me that I shouldn't rely on people for anything

Me being cold is because of you and it effects me heavily, both negatively and positively

You make me some how feel love and hate at the same time ,you ******* my confidence

And shatter my dreams like glass you made me feel less of myself you made me feel as though I am wrong

But you also made me wise you made me think you also made me strong you gave me this non-crap talking attitude
I don't even know whether to hate you or to love you anymore

But what I can do is thank you..
I keep trying,
Trying so hard only to fail.

I failed academics
I failed love
I failed life.

I keep trying,
Trying so hard only to break.

Breaking promises
Breaking hearts
Breaking us.

I keep trying,
Trying so hard to hold on.

Hold on to reality
Hold on to love
Hold on to life.

I keep Failing, Breaking, Falling
Holding onto broken pieces,
Cutting myself again and again.

— The End —
