Notes About The Poem

Limerence

Limerence


L  Looking deep into his eyes,
I  inward, past the deep of blue,
M my heart can see the kindness there
E  embracing every part of me.
R  Reciprocal, I hope he feels,
E  entranced as I for this strong pull.
N  Never have I felt this way,
C  captured by infatuation
E  existing for so many years.
