“You want love
at your own convenience
As one does
their daily chore
Of cooking,
washing and cleaning
For you
consider like any other feeling
You say you don’t
want to eat when you don’t feel hungry
And so you
say of love, probably you are right
What right
one has to force themselves over you
You must
choose when you want to love one and when you do not
If one cries
foul, you must shunt them away and close them behind
For you cannot
entertain intruders
They are
dangerous, addicts
Who would
trap you in their lizard like faces
And crocodile
tears, only to
Suffocate
you beneath their false tales
You must not
listen to them
You are
right, for you choose to listen to yourself
You must not
give way to anyone
Who tries to
deceive you with an idea
‘Love is
different - you must carry a mutual feeling’ hell no!
Beware of
such evil eyes, save yourself
Let the
world burn if it must
Sleep well
dear you, you must be tired. Remember
Love will
come to you if it needs you
Love will
come to you if you demand it
You must own
love as one owns a puppet
And put it
on display; with all your affection, for the world to see
You are kind-hearted
after-all…”
