Love In Your Heart

Love in your heart by Gideon Cecil 

Keep love in your heart
Hate rips your soul apart.
Life without love is
like a smiling flower
at dawn but dies at noon.
Let love grow in your
soul like a tree
without love we die
in sins of misery.
We greet people and part
so soon
Our empty vain words
and promises kill them
time and time again
Like a lighting struck into
the secret veins of their hearts
our words are like wells without
water.
It’s a fictive truth we honour
the dead more than the living
most dead folks are more famous
at death than when they are alive;
Why buy a suit for your dad or mom
when they are dead?
Why buy them a casket when they die?
While they live and die in a shack and
you live in your big mansions?
Why not love them when they are alive
and give them the best.
I have seen hatred hidden
In our elegant attires,
I have seen crooked smiles
veiled in facial blurbs
I have seen vanities of lies
veiled in truths that’s deceit.
Why chat with your FB friends when
they are gone ?Or only if you need their
help you chat?
Friendship is a divine eternal bond that will never
be broken
Let love and forgiveness grow rapidly
like the sea waves in our hearts;
then our souls shall rejoice
into the Kingdom of God from eternity to eternity.
