Salute e Veleno


There comes a time

In everyone's mind

When love is sought out

When the heart's desires are o' so heavy

And everybody scrambles and shouts

To find that one special person

So their heart can become steady

But love coalesces into different forms

From good, to bad, to ugly, and everything in between

One love, healthy love, is the happiest of all

But how does one acquire a healthy love?

Balance is the key

Equality is needed

Together they create a love that cannot be impeded

Gifts returned with gifts

Kindness returned with kindness

Without balance and equality

The love will surely turn to poison
