UnCorinthian


Love is patient and love is kind.
These adjectives they do not come to mind.
Love does not envy and does not boast;
these two sins to whom you host.
Love lacks of pride and and lives through honor
Using slurs toward me as cannon fodder
Love is not selfish and is slow to rage.
fresh are these wounds, infantile in age.
Love forgets past wrongs and lives in truth,
so please explain to me what you mean when you say
"I do this because I love you."
