When Love Grows Cold
Tempers always flare,
Few care.
Lawlessness bares
Indifferent stares.
Compassion leaves,
Lying heaves.
Crime explodes;
Paves broken roads.
Self becomes king
Carnality springs.
Death is courted,
No grace recorded.
Joy is distant
Revenge is instant.
The unthinkable breeds
More despicable deeds.
Life’s not regarded,
Deliberately discarded.
Rage finds a haven
Peace; a cave in.
Steep is the spiral
Contagious and viral.
Evil: unsatisfied
Despair amplified.
Indifference prevails
And loving pails.
