Love (April 4th)

Love

By Justin Anthony Smith

I don't do trash.

I've done that outta pain, loneliness, and desperation.

I've learned that the wait is worth the prize when it comes to flings or love.

Don't just go for what you see.

Pay attention.

You get what you pay for.

You take a trashy bitch to McDonalds, you get syphalis

You take a Queen to Paris, and you rule the world.

You buy a used car, expect some problems.

You buy a brand new whip, you know who all's been in there.

You know where that car's been.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

Death comes for all, and in the end, loneliness is all we have.

The opposite of loneliness is love.

Love is the enemy of death.

With love comes remembrance.

A name set in stone.

A story told.

Another child to teach your ways.

Another loving heart in the world.

A family in a world where family is a foreign concept.

I could care less about the money.

Money distances us.

Money makes us see colors in a world that's black and white.

Money tells us what's right and wrong.

Who to love and who to hate.

Money's your abusive father.

The man who hit your mom.

Who hit you. But you love him.

You need him. He is your role model.

What you associate with.

I'd rather be broke and in love than a slave to the loneliness brought by wealth.

I choose love.

Because love is free.

Justin Smith.
