Fair Game of Life

No book of rules guidelines incomplete
Love tastes bitter and yet so sweet
Tender strong caressing and kind
Love them and leave them far behind
Emotions devotions words from the heart
Symbols of love always the start
But tears and promises accrue in a mass
Broken and tallied the list grows so vast
Haters they hate lovers they love
Beaters they beat barehanded or gloved
Broken bones heal broken hearts grow
Scars will remain above and below
