The Path To Love
Love is won, then it conquers all through patience
But that's impossible without being kind
The two above build one to be honest
Suppressing all the feelings of jealousy
Silencing all tongues not to be boastful
Bruising egos that result from one's pride
Only the wise share from the spoils of lion's pride
Copying the beast waiting for prey in patience
Though giving man no right to be boastful
But giving satisfaction of some kind
Leaving villains in tatters of jealousy
Pulling to you those who remain honest
Noble humans teach children to be honest,
Hold close to heart their identity with pride,
Learn to murder the feelings of jealousy
Those who slur you just lose them no patience
Return slurs with virtues fit for man kind
All these show love and leave no man boastful
Calamity fall on those who are boastful
Misery awaits those who are not honest
Forgive and be cast as one of a kind
But do not become conflated with pride
Cause pride can erode the gift of patience
Leaving you sulky grumpy brewing in jealousy
Love allows no space of growth for jealousy
Fools think themselves wise when they are boastful
Taking as dull the prudence of patience
Hurrying breaking the rules of being honest
Disregarding words of wisdom with pride
Plotting to trample on all those who are kind
The cornerstone in love building is being kind
For that blocks away tinges of jealousy-
Not to cause acrimony that leads to pride-
That mauls peace and harmony by being boastful
Substituting quality of being honest-
With idle talks, lies and haste that ruin patience
Patience is a crown to those who are kind
Be honest to get strength to strangle jealousy
True love is neither boastful nor has pride
