I’m thinking of taking a lover
and it could be you
maybe we could live together
as two
I know that it sounds too simple
and likely so impossible to you
But I have no rules
I don’t need them
and I’m telling you
we wouldn’t need them

in the silence of a moment
I get it

lovers cannot be taken or made...
lovers happen

Love is all around, but everyone has a different definition of love. Good write.

I love this poem.  And it's true lovers DO just happen.  I hope it happens in a most positive and wonderful way for you.

Let go of your concept of reality and try mine for a while...then we'll see how long you last.

Oh man, I messed up my comments...
garysgirl: I meant to say I like the part you mentioned, when we least expect it!

And it was of teen poet I meant to ask
where the quote "Let go of your concept of reality..." came from?  I like it!

I guess I was overwhelmed at the response to my write. Thanks everyone.

I've heard it said, "Life is what happens while you're making other plans"...Love also seems to happen while making other plans!  
When we quit planning for Love, and quit seeking so absolutely for Love, it comes quietly in, and....happens...   If Love is meant to be, it will become...

enjoyed..
