Two Loves :: cagallagher :: Original Poetry

Two Loves

two loves exist,

from which to choose,

with one you win,

the other lose,

one is Rich & Grand & Hot,

the other Safe & Sane & Not,

so which to choose?

i answer one,

for Safe is for those

with rest in mind,

and Sane? Oh my -

you jest - so kind,

and Not, Not you say,

Not Hot?

for me

i'll take the burning kind,

for Rich is the life

touched by passion's flame,

and Grand the memories

lit by same,

and as for Hot,

i tell you now,

those not scorched by

loves sweet pain,

find little solace,

in summer rain!
