A Gift From Heaven?

Teachings tell The story of love, A tale of joy, A gift from above, So sweet to behold, The angels delight, It’s often told, And bathed in light. But this story, Has another side, Dark and sinister, From which we hide, We hide our eyes, With glass of rose, And plug our ears, Our senses close. Into dark we drift, On emotions strong, Green and jealous, Plans going wrong, Anger and hate, Pouring out, Causing pain, Makes us shout. When love is spurned, The sadness starts, Desolation descends, On lonely hearts, And love betrayed, It gets worse still, The anger wells, And makes us ill. What of Lovers tales That go seldom well Stories of death Of evil hell Murder and hate This emotion breeds Ruining life From promising seeds Do not fall blindly Into the field of love Remember well It comes not from above It has a dark side too With dark tales to tell Can cause such pain It may come from hell.
