Beautiful love; disgusting, repulsive Painful betrayal, sensible- insensitive Lost integrity; sorry, mine or yours? True to self, or to devoid ancient laws My elation, always tainted Congratulation, belated, weighted My good news- hard to swallow? Sanction post conflict comes hollow Some find favour with ease They find it easy to please Pleasure and pain sit in balance In small moments of ignorance Some are celebrated Cultivating hatred Goodness breeds envy green A dark divide widens unseen Thoughtfulness so thoughtless, Intellect, faith and progress All at once; Gained and lost Treasure in hand with forgotten cost Careful how you tread And with whom you break bread Hold your values firm While mine make you squirm Had there been choice I'd have nothing to voice Trust me now if you ever did It's oppression that we should forbid!

Hated love
Beautiful love; disgusting, repulsive Painful betrayal, sensible- insensitive Lost integrity; sorry, mine or yours? True to self, or to devoid ancient laws My elation, always tainted Congratulation, belated, weighted My good news- hard to swallow? Sanction post conflict comes hollow Some find favour with ease They find it easy to please Pleasure and pain sit in balance In small moments of ignorance Some are celebrated Cultivating hatred Goodness breeds envy green A dark divide widens unseen Thoughtfulness so thoughtless, Intellect, faith and progress All at once; Gained and lost Treasure in hand with forgotten cost Careful how you tread And with whom you break bread Hold your values firm While mine make you squirm Had there been choice I'd have nothing to voice Trust me now if you ever did It's oppression that we should forbid!
