Love Can Shift- Contest

Love is such a strong force,
it can give one a desire to live and become 
a life source 

Or it can shift,
It can also change course; turn numb
so swift 

Now hate
is the outcome;
fate

Love is such a strong force,
It can also change course, turn numb;
fate

Alexis, a perfect Minichu. Would have placed much higher except that title was requested to be different. Sorry for being strict on it but in past also have done that to other poets and therefore being consistent. Congrats for your placement. Best. Mohan.

It is sad when emotions shift in the wrong direction. One must be vigilant in protecting their important relationships. Well expressed piece. All the best for the contest. ;0)

It takes two to achieve such an extreme change, but can happen. ~~

Just as our outgoing president claimed the news was fake, love can prove to be fake as well.
