Love's Fix

Remember how I use to make you smile?
 I can't and my memory never fails. 
Perhaps I haven't gone the extra mile, 
 or could it just be our love has grown stale. 

What should we do to relight the fire, 
 that has woefully dwindled in our night? 
Have I painted a picture much too dire, 
 or is there a chance this flame reignites? 

Is there work that is needed on my part, 
 to repair the damage that I have done? 
Maybe there is a simple fix for our hearts, 
 that can restart this love and make it run. 

Perhaps the answer to this problem lies, 
 in the beautiful art of compromise.
