Karma Poem by louis rams

Karma

The winter months have gone by just like the spark in your eyes
Where there was joy and tenderness- is now sorrow and unrest.
Where love once stood gallant and free, no longer stands looking for me.
Like the fool that I am, I lost my lover and my friend.
Since I had a good spiel - I thought I'd do good by playing the field.
Now I know how Karma can hurt and it took me for all I'm worth.
Word of mouth spread like wild fire that I was a cheat and a liar.
Friends trust and respect is now something I will never get.
The wrongs we do will haunt us till the day we pay
And through Karma there is no better way.
