The Maze of Sweetness: A Love's Pollination
In the fields of my heart, where love does grow,
There lies a sweetness that I cannot ignore,
Despite my palate's aversion to sugared things,
Your sweet nectar is the only one I crave,
It's essence, like honey, is sticky and sweet,
And consumes my heart in a delightful haze.
Your love, like a bee, has come to my heart's maze,
And pollinated it with the sweetest of things,
Making it bloom with a fragrance so sweet,
A scent that I cannot resist nor ignore,
For it's a scent that I have come to crave,
A scent that in my soul, forever will cling.
When the world feels heavy, and my heart's strings
Are taut with the tension of life's daily maze,
Your love is the balm that I crave,
A salve for the hurt, the bitterness of things,
That soothes my soul and helps me ignore,
The harshness of life, with its bitter-sweet.
And when the day ends, and the night's sweet
Embrace surrounds me, and I feel the strings
Of sleep tug me into dreams, I ignore
The dark corners of my mind's twisted maze,
For in my heart, I hold the memory of things,
Of your love, that has the power to save.
Your love is the one thing that I cannot resist,
A sweet nectar that I crave and long to consume,
A love that has the power to make my heart sing,
To free me from life's unrelenting maze,
To fill my soul with hope, and ignore the bitter things.
So, let the world spin on with all its bitter-sweet,
Let it create its maze of chaos and dark things,
For in your love, my heart has found the only sweetness I crave,
A sweetness that I cannot ignore, a sweetness that I will consume.
It's like the sweetest fruit from an exotic bloom,
Your love is the taste I cannot resist,
A flavor so unique, it's like a sweet perfume,
And in its essence, my heart feels truly blessed.
Though my taste buds may crave other sweet things,
And my mind may wander through life's endless maze,
Your love is the only sweetness that sings,
The only flavor that truly sets me ablaze.
It's the one thing that fills my heart's emptiness,
And the one taste that I can never ignore,
A flavor so divine, so full of sweetness,
It's like a love that was made just for me to adore.
Your love is like a fountain that never dries,
A source of sweetness that forever flows,
It's the one thing that I will always prize,
And the only love that I will ever truly know.
So let the world offer its sugary things,
And let it try to entice me with its maze,
For in your love, my heart has found its wings,
And the sweetness that it craves for all its days.
In conclusion, my love, though I don't consume sweets,
Your sweetness is the only one that I can't resist,
And like a bee to a flower, my heart forever beats,
For the sweet nectar that is your love, the only one that truly exists.
