The Honor of Love

The Honor of Love

                                      Comes from within a soul at peace,
                                      Its measure of balance is strengthened with increase.
                                      Love bores its respect from honor,
                                      And breeds that passion between loes valor.

                                      The honor of love is the truth that leads,
                                      A person with thought not lust's greeds.
                                      For greed brings pain and sadness,
                                      Just as sorrow comforts ones madness.

                                      The honor of love makes a feeling strong,
                                      Not faking its passion and teasing a wrong.
                                      Just as one feels the respect love brings,
                                      So shall that honor of love will forever sing..
