Love's Prey

[anonymously]

Be weary of the lover’s love,
And place no trust in its resilience,
For it can only fail your certitude,
Leaving you alone on your deathbed,
Sacrifice your heart to love,
And you've sacrificed yourself,
For loves beheld does not always feel,
While the beholder becomes loves prey,
To be devoured whole,
To forfeit one’s soul,
And ultimately,
Die alone.
