Focus on Love


Most think about love
as the first stirrings in a heart
when desire to be with another person
takes precedence over everything else.


The longing can become an obsession
until contact is made and love is realized
but the need to posses sometimes
overruns rational thinking 


and love becomes containment
and control rather than a spontaneous
relationship of give and take
especially when the object of desire


does not return the affection
and is repelled rather than attracted
to the one who offers devotion,
but if love wants what is best for another,


the pursuant will back off letting the loved one
decide if future communication will be made
sometimes having to compromise
and seeking love with another 


rather than becoming a stalker
whose intentions are misunderstood.
