Is Love Pretense......(Lover's Naiveté)



So intense my love what to do
I know I can not live without you

eternally it shall with vigor flow
Stronger and stronger it shall grow

left me stranded in lashing rain
why you choose to cause this pain

always out running to an fro
I find some linen in the stow

Why you go out dolled and feign
I surmised I'd never see you again

whiff of cologne, my heart in plow
return You late and a tantrum throw

Your smile’s a solace my heart throb
Snatch and from me moments rob.

But you break me down blow by blow
When need something, you make a show

To this day your smiles an reginal reign
Make me fall in love all over again

Only God can such patience bestow
One day you’ll come around, I know
