Romance

we first succumb
as cautious teens
different creatures
alien beings

attraction builds
a change in view
thoughts uncertain
words unclear

soon we learn
our needs comply
though how expressed
takes time to know

one day sought
the next ignored
feelings drift
intentions blurred

if love unfolds
all seems well
but romance fades
and pain ensues

nature's trick
this endless quest
trapping hearts
thrashing souls
