Love Is Scary

Sour Love

I always wanted love

I always wanted love

But when love goes sour

It becomes deadly

Families killing families

Holidays aren't felt with love

Jealousy takes over

Bitterness seeps in

The heart is broken

And the mind not at peace

Now, love is scary to me

Love is scary to me

    Love sure is scary and hence I stay away from it. Loved your poem!

    When I was younger, I always thought love was scary. But now, I think love is a beautiful thing.
