Cowards

You lie to me in the name of 
your personal sexual gratification.
Coxing me with soft whispers of I love you, 
You obviously viewed me as a cheap 
two dollar pair of tennis shoes purchased at the local
Woolworth nickel and dime.
Tell the truth shame the devil do you have no shame.
You don't have the courage to allow me my feelings. 
Lying in the name of sparing me.
My feelings are mine and its better to tell the 
truth than to lie, in that all of your words were lies.
What is your name, were are you from, do you really 
know were you are going?
A person who truly loves another allows them to 
their feelings. Even anger. 
Coward.... 
Anyone can be a Coward it just comes in 
different venues: Doctors, Lawyers, Artists, Thief, Preacher, 
Teacher, Chief....
Cowards in the name of love are the worst kind.
They will not kill anything, but they will not let it live. 

Caution to young women and young men, beware of the Coward in the name of love....
the coward who says I am sparing you the pain of the truth....
There is no pain in truth, there is only liberation, 
there are no knives, rammed into your back, 
while blood oooses from your mouth.... 
You are dying and you don't know who killed you....
Your beloved. 


Men, Women, people don't emulate, a statue, hard and cold,
standing in the square, frozen in time. Memorialized for your acts.
I would rather die trying, than being a coward, removing the dignity of the unbeknown victim.


What makes you so different what makes you stand out. 
Your cunning play on words. Telling one you love them, and the 
other you sleep next to. Don't be a man of two minds. 
As you will never rest. Never, indulge your fancy in foolishness.
Don't be a coward.


You showed your hand when you identified with a man of 
such low disregard. 
Referring to women as simple Whores...
Professing you are a man 
based on your sexual ability.


Free your soul with the truth and save face, as 
your lessons will be hard if change is not destined to 
come to you. 
A coward has the same problems up close as far away....
Especially one that uses love as their weapon.
