Yards Away

shouting from the mountain-top

tidings of finding a lover

 

stolen looks arouses emotions

and emotions make an offer

 

reaching a mutual deal

and this deal is to reach a seal

 

the joy of lifting veils

is like treasured rubies found

with passion growing to the nails

finally, love is here abound

 

bride is silver

groom is gold

 

secrets open

privacies become bare

 

giants are woken

and cowards can now dare

 

as thickness slims down

love dies unnoticeable

 

and the knee takes over the crown

cos the deserving cannot humble

 

those heavy vows are left unkept

respect begins to erode

with lovers ever ready to explode

only waiting '' a get set''

 

all o sudden laughing faces turn red

and insults are taken as one's daily bread

 

hatred grown

can ruin lives and destinies

and farther apart everyone draws

 

little is known

lovers can be enemies

and turn beast with claws

 

deadly claws that scratch

only twenty yards away

 

the love that asked how?

soon shall ask why?

and the lover that said now

later has no shy

 

to argue shoulder to shoulder

as lovers fall many yards away
