Random Poems about Love

There was a poetry contest and so I wrote these two short poems about love:


The warmth we seek isn't for the weak

When the fire ignites, oh how we shriek with delight

When the passion wanes, the faint of heart won't remain

Those that do, hide behind the mystique of misleading doublespeak

All that deception won't bring connection

What's being saved? 

Surely not the love that's craved

The warmth I seek isn't for me if I'm weak

It's a fickle flame I tend faithfully

When it goes low, I nurture it so

No matter the souls, love is a growth to extol

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The warmth we seek isn't for the weak

Grasping hands grope for something real

To take the edge off the mortality and loneliness we feel

In the chaos and in the pain, search for a flame to show the way

If such a rare, true light is found,

What matters the form it takes, or the shape?

The warmth I seek isn't for me if I'm weak

It's a fickle flame I tend patiently

When it goes low, I nurture it so

No matter the souls, love is a growth to extol
