Love Is A Four Letter Verb. Poem by Michael Gale

I gave you my heart...
You made me glad.

I forbade your jealousy...
You got real mad.

I gave you my friendship...
You shut me out.

I forgave you...
You would only shout.

I gave you peace...
You let go-your life's, happy lease.

We got back together...
You wore high heels, a whip and black leather.

Our down time was shortened...
Our love for each other-is important.

We gained respect for one another...
To each-We no longer, do smother.
