Underprized.
Underprized.
Love, the underprized eternal God-word
has become today
mostly outmoded.
Alteration stains its disguised state, for
love, absurdly changed to shadows
is merely pretence
and been corroded.
Masquerading as some trait of worth,
love lies weakened and is nowhere
special, seen by some
as almost inept.
Left un-nurtured, this thing called love
just withers further, doubt invades,
and its power fades
to being senseless.
Desecration of a word turned usurper,
love so deteriorates that users
agree this love is of
no consequence,
just an emotion,
demeaned.
Once confessed love needs constancy,
otherwise as with any mistook
God-word, compromised
love may become
seen as surreal.
We who believe need to look closer
at Easter's meaning.
