Romance

I hope at last,
i have reached
the age of reason,
though i fear,
i am very much alone.
Once life was a
glorious syncopation,
it's now nothing but a
monotonous monotone.
I'm tired of passing lightly,
over the nightly,
brief sex appeal.
I now, want a love
to last forever,
true love, that lasts
through sick and well.
I'm building up a
brand new romance,
building it deep and strong.
For, without a solid foundation,
love wouldn't last at all.
I've learned from sad,
past mistakes, true love
should last for all eternity.
To some folks, eternity is
only for a week or more.
I fondly hope
my new romance,
will last forever, as it
has never done before.
