Love: No Choice but To Follow

distracting desire

love’s a dream passing at night

lingering perfume

lingering perfume

hints of love’s reality

even in our dreams

even in our dreams

that perfect time of true love

lasting an instant

lasting an instant

fleeting love that might have been

never seen again

never seen again

a love so pure it blinds us

maybe once in life

maybe once in life

maybe that one love in life

maybe missed by chance

maybe missed by chance

that powerful love so chaste

it can hardly be

it can hardly be

love’s knot a sacred promise

lasting forever

lasting forever

our love that always holds strong

strengthened through kind time

strengthened through kind time

by all things that hamper love

a journey for love

a journey for love

old age cannot ever lose

love that stands so strong

love that stands so strong

a barricade against loss

marking time with joy

marking time with joy

anniversaries of love

fresh celebrations

fresh celebrations

earned through holding onto love

each and every year

each and every year

great love will stay new and warm

mellowing the time

mellowing the time

love’s experience runs deep

once can be enough

once can be enough

but many chances may come

distracting desire
