Is Love A Gift Or A Curse?
Ruhani Gidha (Age 14)
Character is self centered endlessly;
Race to a heart to win not for pleasure in one,
Drowsy loving starts a new destiny,
Mind being ruptured by words is done,
Eyes are hit with Cupid's bow but betrays,
Mouth spews gunk to serve as punishment,
Inept is fed pointers like a stray;
Leisurely touch ends in astonishment,
Disappointing truth about life is shown;
Measures are taken to relive this heyday,
The hidden toxicity's cover is blown,
Was it just best for you is what i'll say,
Focus in my body is lost in unruly,
Regained once seen the value of yours truly.
Race to a heart to win not for pleasure in one,
Drowsy loving starts a new destiny,
Mind being ruptured by words is done,
Eyes are hit with Cupid's bow but betrays,
Mouth spews gunk to serve as punishment,
Inept is fed pointers like a stray;
Leisurely touch ends in astonishment,
Disappointing truth about life is shown;
Measures are taken to relive this heyday,
The hidden toxicity's cover is blown,
Was it just best for you is what i'll say,
Focus in my body is lost in unruly,
Regained once seen the value of yours truly.
