LOVE

by Leonard Masauli
(Malawi)

What is love?
Simple as it sounds
Mighty like a gun
But hard to get

The four-word love
So sumptuous
But it is subtle
Today you smile
Tomorrow you are sad

That’s love maybe
That softens Men's hard hearts
Makes even Giants sink so low
All in the name of love
Love-love-love
As powerful as death
