JUST A LITTLE LOVE

Just a little love,

You are all I crave

after years of torment

in life without you,

but the more I edge closer to you,

The more you draw away from me.

Just a little love

could have made great difference,

Could have bought me smiles,

Could have made me stop futile search,

Could have settled my heart

but you are never here.

Just a little love,

Is all I need to be a man,

Is all I need to be better,

Is all I need to be braver,

Is all I need to be saver,

Is all I need from her

but she never gave.

Just a little love,

I gave more than just that,

but she threw it into a trash bin.

I treated her like a Queen

but she treated me like leper.

and the love that I gave,

she returned with scorn.

Just a little love,

Is all I crave from her

but when I smile with her

She call me imbecile,

When I plead with her,

She says I'm less a man,

When I call her she says I'm jobless.

But all I do is to show greater love

In return for just a little love.

Just a little love,

Would have saved the hungry

little boy's life,

Would have helped that roaming-

Hairy soul to stay sane,

Would have saved that cheap lass her pride,

Would have saved the dream of that dreamer,

Just a little love,

Just like I wanted from her

Is what the other person need from you,

It is what the world really need

to be a sweet home.

NOTE

“Just a little love” is a poem inspired by a real love story, an experience I passed through in search of  love but then I realized I didn't want too much, all I wanted was just a little love, it could have made a very great difference but then my supposed lover never gave it out.

I needed to let people learn from this story. I discovered this is the same thing the world is lacking. Many don't need the largest proportion of your love; all they need is just a little love from you to survive.

All they need is for you to make them feel they still have a reason to live but you are too overwhelmed by your own problems to help others. Many have died, who could have lived if you had shown them just a little love.

Just a positive word,

 Just a hug,

 Just a visit when others run,

Just a stroll down with them on the street,

Just an advice,

 Just a little change given,

Just a clap,

Just a smile when others frown

would be at least enough to keep the downtrodden

(the imbecile, the down syndrome, the orphan, the needy, the promising dreamer) alive.

Valentine's day is not a day to be selfish with love,

it is a day to show the world you care,

it is a day to show your family you love them,

it is a day to show love to the unlovable(s)

and give them a reason to stay alive, then you would have saved a life.

SHOW A LITTLE LOVE AND SAVE A LIFE TODAY!!!

HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY
