Lilibonelle Poetry - To Win a Heart

TO WIN A HEART To win a heart you must be true. Integrity, should you win let it be part of you. You'll find no need for compromise, True love, is not ever in disguise. it's in the eyes, true love realised! Integrity, should you win let it be part of you! Little white lies ner undo. Revealed they will compromise yourself, Don't even keep them on a shelf. Best, unless they are surprises. You'll find no need for compromise Little white lies use only for a nice surprise. Or when needs must to keep her trust. But even then what needs make it a must? Keeping secrets is not true love! True love not ever in disguise! Let two become one for the rest of your lives. There'll be topics on which you won't agree. Beg to differ, or make two three! A kiss and cuddle worked for us, yessiree! It's in the eyes, true love realised! Spontaneous, not contrived. My heart is yours and yours is mine. True love shared is so divine. I won a heart, yes you, to which I'll be forever true! I'm yours, your mine, true love pursued!
