Emile Pinet Poet Quatrain

Love Always Wins

Surrendering innocence;
lust acquiesces to sin.
And fuels fledgling feelings;
convinced love will always win.

You revel in the pleasures
inflated egos conceive.
Yet, wooed by convincing lies:
you find emotions deceive.

And it hurts to play the dunce;
watching your dreams fall apart.
But it is not the first time
sadness has broken your heart.

Somewhere between frowns and smiles,
there's a place where doubts take shape.
And they can drive you to tears;
seeking a means of escape.

Praying for help from above,
you admit you've made mistakes.
And yet, you still long for love,
as suddenly, Hope awakes.
