Built Around Two

Love's euphoric elixir seduces with tempting sips. And fledgling feelings take flight; as sweet kisses seek sweet lips. Passion's flame burns intense, for love keeps on fanning it. Yet, despite vague promises, no one's willing to commit. Being alone is lonely, for dreams are built around two. And you want to find someone who will share their dreams with you. But fate's possibilities make it critical you choose. For if Hope opts to gamble, there's a good chance you could lose. (Quatrain) 2/5/2015

So true Emile, one is wise in knowing the importance of just such a choice. I was horrible at such choices, till I finally put it in God's hands and it was He who found the right girl for me.

Two times two is four. But in this case, less is more. For love was made for two. And without it, you just end up blue. Thanks for the visit Emile. Peace. :)

this is a very eloquent way to do a poem on the seeking of true love. I really loved the line "kisses seek compliant lips." Great writing.
