A Thing Called Love

"A Thing Called Love"
by:  Eric L. Boddie

You only Live once, so have no regrets
So, at some point, go and have you some sex
And if you do it right, Love is what comes next
But please understand that relationships can get complex
For it only takes an instance to become one's ex
But once you truly learn that Love respects
All of the passion that the frame reflects
You will lose all ability to show neglects
Because that is truly what any heart expects
And the mating of a Soul always corrects
Every single thing that hate infects
Establishing compassion to all deserving suspects
Who won't give in to all of those "what the hecks"
Because once Love injects
Life sees great effects
Where only negativity is all it rejects
