Looking for Love

Companionship and devotion
Require you to concede

How vulnerable you are
And what it is that you need

Loneliness builds to the brink
But you bare it,

You know what a feeling feels like
So share it

Unaware if it’s love
Or merely just lust,

But honestly looking
For someone to trust,

Avoid foolish expectations
Of ease or perfection

And the continuous fear
Of personal rejection

There isn’t one recipe,
Path or cause

Except learning to love
The embracement of flaws
