Pure Devotion

Young moonlit eyes flame
  
    roused by infatuation
       until seasons change...

     hearts bearing nights’ languished  thorns 
as pure devotion ripens

"Until seasons change" proves you understand that love is forever changing. Good luck in the contest, this one is a gem.

Nette.. indeed this is a hot write but maturely so. Words used to effectively arouse feeling, more so than describing a static, albeit romantic, scene. You can almost touch the allure of infatuations grip. But then infatuation ripens into devotion. Beautifully painted!
