To Love
I delight in love of a smile so gentle
a touch so divine and a warmth so cozy
I delight in the love of the flames of romance
they melt mine heart like wax to a flame
to love as commanded for love is divine
to uphold to trust and to delve into the quarry
the quest of a thirst so pure that dwells inside
inside of mine heart that yearns for a lovers embrace
I brace my self and steel my nerves
as i drum up courage the courage to approach her
love personified in the pretty female form oh so divine
an attribute so pure beholder I so desire
I smile on the approach on her part its a shadow of a smile
I know by now she is delighted in me pursuing her very heart
she knows i wish her well though not all mine intentions are holy
for to love is to stare into her eyes and feel them flames
flames that draw me to a cesspool of emotions a place divine
where mine fears are subdued wars fought and kingdoms taken
taken by her through the attributed influence her fiery passion
if to love is a commandment then mortal man i will adhere strictly
