Comparisons

Passion and Apathy:

Love is passion, fiery and true,
Indifference apathy, a muted view.
One cares with a tender grace,
The other drifts, an empty space.

02

Comparisons

Affection and Neglect:

Love affection, a warm embrace,
Indifference neglect, a cold space.
One holds with a fervent plea,
The other fades, silently.

03

Comparisons

Warmth and Cold:

Love warmth, a glowing light,
Indifference cold, void of sight.
One nurtures with a caring hand,
The other passes, like drifting sand.

04

Comparisons

Affection and Apathy:

Love is affection, tender and true,
Indifference apathy, a cold hue.
One embraces with a warm touch,
The other withdraws, caring not much.

05

Comparisons

Passion and Detachment:

Love is passion, a fiery light,
Indifference detachment, void of sight.
One burns bright with a radiant flame,
The other fades, with no name.

06

Comparisons

Passion and Apathy:

Love, a fire that warms the soul,
Indifference, where the cold winds blow.
Love, it cares and deeply feels,
Indifference, it never heals.

07

Comparisons

Love, it builds with tender hand,

Indifference, a barren land.
Both together, shape our fate,
In their balance, love and hate.
