The Sword of Love
Spoken Word by Mikey & V
They told me love was soft.
Polite.
Quiet.
That love kept the peace,
even if it meant keeping people in chains.
But I met a different kind of love.
One that flips tables.
One that bleeds for its enemies.
One that cuts—not to kill,
but to heal what’s infected.
This love doesn’t whisper lies to keep you comfortable.
It speaks truth even when it trembles.
This is the sword of love.
Not forged in hate.
Not swung in pride.
But drawn in the name of freedom.
It slices through false comfort,
splits soul from spirit,
separates the addiction from the identity,
the shame from the son.
Love doesn’t mean letting you stay blind.
Love means turning on the light
even if it stings at first.
Love isn’t watching you drown
and saying, “It’s not my place.”
Love dives in,
challenges the current,
and sometimes drags you out screaming
because your breath matters more than your comfort.
The sword of love
doesn’t come to destroy you.
It comes to destroy everything
that keeps you from being who you were always meant to be.
Final Word:
So when I speak,
know it’s not out of anger—
it’s out of agony.
Because I’ve seen the cost of silence.
And I love you too much
to let you die in your sleep.
This is the sword of love—
cutting, yes—
but cutting to set you free.
