L F B

Love conquers fear
Fear hides from Love
Both perhaps impostors

Looking not for love
Forsaking even lust
Beguiling oneself

Leaving behind trust
Forgiveness now a burden
Blindly following heartache

Little now escaping
Fat chance of return
Bastard wins again


Life flits lightly
Following those uncaring
Begotten wretches, ill feeling


Laziness partner’s deceit
Fortune hates the coward
Bludgeoning into despair


Lust cannot quench
Feelings that need to be
Bewitching hearts plead freedom
