IS THIS LOVE THEN
Am I the only one who isn’t really sure
When love comes knocking at the door
The face one may not at first, recognise
Then trying to stifle that look of surprise
It is supposed to make one ask for more
But never knowing quite what’s in store
You let them in yet can a smile say it all
A growing fear of being set up for a fall
Such suspicion from a previous haunting
And early full commitment was daunting
If not allowing it to progress, it will stall
Like running headlong into a brick wall
The brain’s uncertain, the heart says yes
A final decision is required, more or less
No passport or I.D checks to be applied
And they’ll be free to roam, once inside
But is this really love, I still have to guess
The topic about which one should obsess
Just then, did I detect a Cupid arrow hit
My heart missed a beat, but did not quit
But isn’t it supposed to be instantaneous
Feelings being more than miscellaneous
Has my situation changed, if only a bit
When liking is not love and it doesn’t fit
Perhaps in time, it can put down roots
I cannot ignore these springtime shoots
As now is the moment it decides to start
It runs in my veins, both head and heart
The equation of love, always computes
And will be victorious, whenever it suits
