Why
Why
I query my inner soul
Is it an abomination
To cherish a tender
And loving partner
In an amorous
relationship?
Why
I query me
Is it that life
Is but a home
Of struggle unending
For the faithful
lovers?
Why
Again I query me
Is it that lovers can't
But face unending
Yearnings and
yellings
In the face of selfish
taste and passion?
Why
Me I query once
again
Do we attempt
ceaselessly
To quench the
undying flame
Of lasting affection
amorous
Between celestially
joined lovers?
Why
I query me once more
Can't we replace
The scorn we have
for love
With flowers that
bloom
All year and season
round?
Why
I query me again
Do lovers bamboozle
each other
With barrages of lies.
And not straight
And truths unending?
