Online dating

An open letter
From the lonely hearts club
To the ones waiting in the wings
For the lone archer cherub
To stand in the spotlove
Where waxing souls sing
Songs of serendipity
Exhausted pace to seek
Will spilled from the open cut minds
Of two humans
Just simply being.

Embrace all that may grow
From romance ground in lust
To rise, writhe and aspire to tower above
Those seeds seldom sewn
But however it goes
No expectations wins
With grace I know
The odds are stacked even
Looking into a bubbling beacon
Of contentment
Positive expansion
Emotions presented with heat
May be low to unlikely
If ever they, or us, shall ever meet
Still, we will put the burner beneath it
To see what comes
Sweep them off their feet
See how fast they run
Smiling with whatever whim
Unwilling to control or steer
The ones we hold dear
Until then the day
If
Maybe
When
We stop aching
Slake the desire
Start again akin
To a fire.

Every morning
Smouldering on
Sets the day
Locked to my psyche
And dusk embers fade
Up all night
Clear the ash
Build my house again.
