Youth, Love, and Truth
Youth told me that love breaks bones
but time made me wiser with laughs
as Life showed me that love grows
into a companionship of two souls.
Youth told me that love breaks bones
but dignity proved to be all that matters
in a world plagued with shallowness,
selfishness and narcissistic males.
Youth told me that love breaks bones
but experience showed me success
in love is reserved for similar minds
with shared dreams and priorities.
Maturity told me love never breaks
as it walks on trust breaths
kindness, travels through souls,
ages with gossip, and speaks in silence.
