Bitterly Sweet Poem by J.B. Baronda

Love, a venom that could flow into our veins,
or perhaps an emotion to cure all pain?
Love gives and love takes,
Love could teach us learn from all of our mistakes.

We desire and lust with hate and pride,
But in the end, It's the care and love we set aside.
We sometimes feel weak, We sometimes feel discouraged,
We often feel stupid in doing things we've always encourage.

Love speaks through words and actions,
Envy and jealousy always create heart-breaking accusations.
Intimacy often lead to obsession,
An overflowing desire of love and passion.

Is it the desire of lust that makes me stay?
or is it you whom is melting away?
The flower that is slowly withering upon me,
Acceptance is the key, But It cannot be.
