Love Advice

love ebbs and flows like tides
dragged by the moon
the one whom you adore today
you may despise tomorrow
plan not the future as a child
for when you are an adult
you see the errors
of immaturity
and wish for the changes

cherish what you have
for it can be gone
before you can sneeze
never to return
like time lost
and never regained
appreciate the present
before it is the past

relationships have no me and you in them
there is only us
and should it dissolve
there is nothing
it is lost

what you do to someone else
will return to haunt you
one way
or another

beauty is only skin deep
purity is throughout
watch yourself
one can not lose love so quickly
as you who pushes it away
into the arms of the one you least
suspect
