On Love's-go-Round

Time and again, two hearts do mesh
whether be passion, love or flesh
To take what's left of long lost pride
to enter in, two souls collide

For when these ones, of love, who've lost
again this time fore go the cost
To take this leap, just one more time
on this go-round, once more to ride

And when you leave, what is to be
of all you've seen and yet to see
Go blindly into love's dark night
thru all the pitfalls, devoid of light

A candle lit, small light to guide
to what awaits, the other side
Of what will come or come to pass
to what will fail and what will last

For one more chance in this dark night
with one small candle this hope to light
Still do I wonder why hearts do stray
so much to lose ...... so much to gain

To blindly trek with those who've lost
again fore go, loves painful cost
To make this choice again to ride
on love's go-round, this one more time

Please tell me now, where do hearts go
between the clutter of ebb and flow
After the pleasure before the pain
in constant repair ..... to remain the same.
