No Shame Nor Blame

Love feeds a deep desire, a longing ache, and passion's flame, oft tethered to a wish. And like a decadent chocolate cake, it's so scrumptious, you want to lick the dish. Love's a bond that can never be broken; ignoring logic, it assumes control. And stronger than any promise spoken, born in the heart, it migrates to the soul. Love is a highly addictive feeling; once you have felt it, nothing else will do. And that feeling can leave your head reeling, when you realize its effect on you. Love's candle burns an ethereal flame, and within its light, there's no shame nor blame.
