Love Yourself Poem by Adams King

LOVE ❤️ YOURSELF
Young ones you've heard of love
And the beautiful rudiment of it
You must have been told by folks
How sweet is the very first kiss
Under the bright or dark sky
With a burning emotion kindled inside

Young ones I'm sure you were told
There is nothing as good as love
Or will there ever be a thing to compare
Lovely words to twist your feeble heart
That bend your knee to beg for love
Or crave for the feelings of such

You must have heard of pleasures
That done by lover behind curtains
Where no eyes must be allowed to see
The immoral practice of naked acts
Which has now been the very sacrifice
And proof of the love we share today

Young one all the paradisiacal world
Of love is only but a temporal heaven
The greatest lines of pains and regret
Were carved out from a broken love
No man can give the love you heard about
So my advice for you is to love yourself

Love yourself than any other man on earth
Seek first your comfort and not theirs
What pleases your soul and not them
But if you chose to play the game of love
Lower your hopes and lessen your trust
Give the first to yourself the second also

Do not trade your heart for trifle words
With a thousand meaning but less worths
Poetry has been a deceitful scripture
Quoted by dramatic men of false feelings
For many has made sour beautiful hearts
With the verse of that three little word
