IF LOVE IS A CRIME

If love is a crime

I will give more than a dime to get the best lawyer

Because I will be love’s most active member

Who would always give my effort and endeavor

To be again love’s best defender

Always making sure I never slumber

For I remember, a time in December

I was once a love conqueror

Who was left to uncover

A realm of a false lover

The aftermath led to my emotional disorder

But always knew there was another

Who would treat me better

Who would love me deeper

Who would cherish me further

Always draw me closer

Care for me like no other

Betray me, never!

If love was not a crime

I would be love’s most sworn eliminator

For after my emotional disorder

That took me months to recover

My love would have been infinitesimal

Always describable with a decimal

I could have chosen not to be loyal then it will be the phrase I call critical

Because we would lack the essential

To make our relationship formal

Then I will say I love you no more

Please accept it, it’s normal

Alas, making me love’s worst hater

Making me love’s worst discriminator

Making me love’s worst member

Most of all, love’s sworn attacker

If love was again a crime

Even with all that I have been through

I still choose to be forever true

Always be among the best few

If love was crime

I would still write my poems and make them rhyme

For I believe in what comes from above

That’s a real true unconditional love!
