Love Jones

A flame sparked by heat of passion 
Went wild with mutual motion 
One versed with words, one with beauty 
First sight, sapped the fruit of bounty 

But love's spark is complicated 
Some limbs bruised, some dislocated 
Where true faith is the test of love 
Some hearts can go wild like a dove

The heart must make its rightful choice 
It must listen to its true voice 
Regrets can't make the time come back 
For, day is bright and night is dark
