Shame Of Love Poem by Okello Baloyi

Shame Of Love

I'd like to believe that love itsn't fake
But bad things were done in the name of love
Imagine a mother being abused resulting in love
And my same very own mother raised me with love
But does love differ where it comes from
Love that turned into business
Young sisters squandering a lot of money from the wealthy ones
Trust and hearts broken in the name of love
Cruel people who were once wonderful
But cause they were hurt in the name of love
And nothing is left for them but to hate every good
I never thought someone could us money just to be loved
Not to speak of those who cheat almost everyday
But all of it, it's just another shaming to a wonderful name
Love is just a fancy word to fool the heart and be used
Lying was not lying until love was involved
But the thought of being loved can bring out the whole behaviour
Our sisters been murdered daily using love as a result
How can such evil continue happening
