love
When your heart holds pressure with melancholic thoughts,
think of that person that has kept you up
Not the one who has kept you tied up in knots;
but the one that with you would hold up a champagne cup
You need one that would love you for you, and your flaws,
do not pay attention to those
that would restrain you with laws;
all they would do is your life foreclose
Ideal love was back in Spenser’s period,
do not lose yourself with obsessive, institutional love
And, if you are to find one full of greatness...but hideous
Do not quit on them; not everyone is born a beautiful dove
Love indeed but do not settle for the unknown
As life has shown that that will only make you feel alone
