Analysis of Philosophies of love
Love...
The complexity of it all
Never a stranger
To stranger ways
Yet, in flux
What shall I do
But, enter into unknown realms
Lost beyond, where all hearts may go
And, what if the life lines
Should never fetch me back
Nor if they could
Would I then, embrace their rescue
I prefer to drown
Within her arms
In the passions of a heart
And address to all...
who have partaken of this fruit
Sweetest nectars from the vine
Counsel I, against all hopes of diets change
To quell desires of the appetites
A universe of benevolence
Beatitudes within this
The seasons of...
Love's preparatory bliss
To also caution...
Upon discovery of fresher science
Which only seeks to explain
But, become a master of the study
Worshiping her undue complexity
And revel in this catalyst
Of newer discoveries
Unto one’s self
Becoming like an innocence
Within her presence
And always there...
Destined to be and remain
