Gone

Take me back to the days of Romeo and Juliet
To the movie of Jack and Rose
Where love was so pure and beautiful
Is there something am missing?
Because this definition of love has names
Assets,liabilities,class,status,wealth and so on

Some of our parents didn't fall heels in love like our generation.
Yet, their marriages are still standing strong
Where did this new love go?
Today,they are so deeply in love
Tomorrow, they are deep in divorce with nasty fights about custody for the kids and properties.

Once lovers now sworn enemies
Where did the love go?
He used to treat her nicely while they were courting
Now, he hits her and leaves her with scars
Does love die?does it fade?
Or is it mere infatuation mistakenly for love?

There are men who are capable of loving
After years upon years,they still have that sparkle.
Full of love, affection, kindness, care and warmth.
Raised well by their mothers to treat women right.
They are not like this set of entitled, ill-mannered men on the streets, hitting their women and showing bad examples to their kids.
Indeed, the good men are few while the bad ones are all over the place.

In search for love, shine your eyes and be smart.
Before you end up with a panel beater.
All that glitters is not gold.
Say hi to that good man for me
Tell him I hope I run into him someday
Give him a warm hug for being such a good man.
