Standing the Storm

Ladies who crave cars and cash
often treat true love like trash.
Men who see love as a game
often dump ladies without shame.

The first fire and fragrance that flow
are not enough to make love grow...
We may start the sail with excitement,
standing the storm requires commitment.

So true Adeleke. All relationship's will experience storms at some point and it takes hard work to weather them together.
