Take a look if you will at love
it is something we all dream of
yet, I'll make you a bet
most of us do regret
we know little about what is love


methinks most of us think genitalia
those especially who like to feel ya
saying love when it's lust
making you feel you must
give in or you become memorabelia


Though we have changed quite a bit
today's role reversal  a big hit
yet, way deep down inside
where our truth likes to hide
our old habits are not likely to quit


To have love we search out a mate
one to whom we can really relate
yet, when push comes to shove
we changed all that we loved
so we wind up with someone we hate


Who are they that have gotten it right
stayed together through plenty or plight
each put the other first
bringing out best not worst
they are those with forever in sight


etw

Beautifully true Eileen!!
'each put the other first
bringing out best not worst
they are those with forever in sight'
We focus on what separates us or bonds us!
Fantastic learning of love ... oh learning, learning!
Love, Suzie :-D

Very nice write...but one never knows what tomorrow will bring, any of us...life is so full of uncertainty...much truth in this write. One thing that I've learned from nearly twenty eight years of marriage, is that it takes two working, loving, forgiving, and wanting the same thing. Great write!
Blessings,

Eileen,
At my age and 40 years later it's gone way beyond lust. Well said my friend.

I'm gonna tell you what, Eileen! You haave a keen sense of observation and it is just that that leads one to know the differences in what is love and what isn't. I find this simply profound and I'm working on getting it right...
Love,

true love belongs to those who have learned to be even better friends ... they endure time by knowing how to bring out the best in themselves by securing the lust for life ...

a well developed poem, with smooth rhyme and poignant message ...
