“Sweet and Sour” That’s what Love is… Whether you are A brother, A sister, A mother, A father, A lover, Or a friend. We cannot sustain The relationship Without both The bitter and the sweet. We languish In the ecstasy While it is ours, But we deteriorate Into nothingness When it is taken from us. We have not yet learned To weigh the rewards Of possessing it temporarily Against the anguish Of losing it When it has gone. We are selfish creatures Doomed never to learn The value of Those treasures we have… Jb pearce 1-9-18
