Credits and discredits

To love back one who loves you
Is not a credit that you deserve.
It is a debt cleared.

To love one who doesn’t love you
Is not a credit that you deserve.
It is your investment.

To love one on sexual ground
Is not a credit that you deserve.
It is to feed your hunger.

Though you deserve no credit,
If you don’t employ such loves
You will get discredits.
