The fault in love

Location

I have seen a man love his Queen.

To celebrate Her with flags,

embellish Her worth.

Unashamed respect.

 

I have seen a man love their God.

To forgive Him,

to devote.

Blind faith.

 

I have seen a woman love their Child.

Putting Their needs first,

admiring Their mistakes.

Selfless compassion.

 

I have seen a child love Their Hamster.

Indulging in playtime,

time dwindling away.

Delight.

 

I have seen I loving You.

Coddling myself with Your presence,

protecting myself, shielding You.

Selfishness.
