A LIFE BEREFT OF LOVE
Incomplete, unfulfilled locked in a box trapped concealed
A life without love is to be hidden away never revealed
How it feels to be with that special someone, never knowing
How could you ever be with a partner without ever showing?
Where would we be, how would we act if we felt emotion and failed to react
Always in the back of our minds knowing there was something we had lacked
Cutting off your nose to spite your face bereft of love in an empty space
Akin to drifting in an ocean of unhappiness & despair sinking without trace
Love is not just in the feelings we show to one another but in the things we do
Helping with disasters, causes, those in need and loved one’s closest to you
It enriches our lives and helps us to grow and to look forward to tomorrow
Without it we are only certain of a lifeless world filled with pain and sorrow
We can embrace or choose to disregard but life without love will hit us hard
Forget color creed or race we live in a world in which discrimination should have no place
We can talk & fight, argue who is wrong or right or against others show hate and spite
But we must always remember that not everything in life is black and white
Love can break barriers and tear down walls, building bridges where conflict exists
Nothing is ever straight forward or easy though and there will be turns and twists
Beware of our failings, like an artist in control of the picture he paints
If we act in the right way when held to account we should have no complaints
