PASSION

Passion runs like rivers; 
it finds the bed that will hold it
Love is its own reward
no matter what happens after
the initial encounter
you can never regret
love; it never dies
and doesn't go away
stronger than death
more powerful than
betrayal; even if you walk
away, love leaves its
tracks on your heart
mementos carved
into your DNA
you are changed
forever
