Measure For Measure

Passion beyond measure, goes infinity,
Cascade of melody, swirls to tranquility,

Emotions upsurge, as tides in ocean,
Moods change colors, as clouds of succession,

Every science, there has to be a measure,
Reason and logic, one must treasure,

Quantum or quality, good better best,
Units and standards,evaluate adding to zest ,

Gala days bring forth, charm on the face,
Sadness and gloom, tears surface,  

Credence in love, allures to heaven,
Dejection takes you in hell to burn ,

Ebullition in love, for best to measure,
But is there any measure for that measure?

Speak up your heart, rather than confine ,
If yes, then who else can better define ?
