Love is the sweetest feeling
on mother planet!
it stirs and maintains storms in lovers
spreads pleasant sparks
over souls involved
some lovers bathe
in the waters of happiness!

Sometimes bad conditions
make feelings we enjoy unbearable
peace and smiles hide far away
from couples now parted company

I am tempted to think at times
man is incapable in body and mind
to manage that emotion
in very dark and painful moments!

Some turn against themselves
take their own lives in hiding and open
some dive and drown
in the sea of madness
the pill of rejection fails
to slide down throats of some
many resort to unwanted violence
in prooving love turned sour
persons cannot stand seeing
former lovers happy and laughing
attack and maim them
worst murdering others!

Guidance and counselling
offloads burdens of some
but piles of excess anger
are almost bursting chests
of many ex-lovers!

Additional assistance
is urgently needed
to neutralise the poison
of vengeance in the hearts
troubled by love gone bitter

You and me must ensure
the world throws away burdens
containing love turned sour effects
hate, hunger, murders, orphans
divorce, deserted offsprings...

Governments and spiritual institutions
should strengthen and support
marriages and all relationships
counsel the separated and broken hearts
with remedies in place
cost of separation will go down!

Love is a juicy fruit
rot at times attacks it
how can we discard it
less hurting all involved?
love, hate, reducing effects of love turns sour
