The thing we think is love, is not!
It’s need that fools a foolish mind.
In time we feel constrained, confined,
As growth provides a different plot.
So fixed on love, the mind forgot
To listen with the Spirit’s ears.
If truly sought, true love appears!
We cease to cling, but open wide!
Our needs are met, but from inside.
To love another, conquer fears!

A Decima inspired by Ronovan’s post and written for this week’s challenge,
Look. This week, it’s the C rhyme line.
As you can see, I used “appears.”
Very nice line: “If truly sought, true love appears!” I like the affirmation in “truly” and “true”.

Very good write! ❤ I love the use of fools and foolish in the same line, and other instances of alliteration.
