roses don't bring fragrance alone,
they also hide thorns
perfume doesn't nullify anything,
at best it weakens a stink
friendship is fleeting to most,
it ebbs at the altar of money
thunderstorms aren't very pretty,
when you're minus an umbrella
flowers can brighten the day,
but you have to search for a vase
kisses don't last forever,
the slaps are just around the corner
temptation isn't a temporary state,
it heaves in as endless waves
laughter dissolves the fastest,
when you got to pay for coffee
jokes will lighten a situation,
but will not overcome bad people
love can conquer everything,
not if you are terribly hungry
