The Do and Do Not of Love

Give me your love

Hot hot heat

Give me your love

Do not go bad

Do not go sour

Do not stop

Do not shop

Do not full of choc

Do not full of jam

Do not give me half

Do not go bad

Do not go sour

Do not let me down

Do not give me up

Do not say it when you don't mean it

Do not say it just to say it

Do not love me just for fun

Love me for me

Lips on lips

Hips on hips

Kiss me

Push and pull with me

Roll and turn with me

Do not give up on me

Give me your love

Thanks for reading!

So...as probably my last entry in the Short and Sweet Challenge, I did something a little differently. I smashed a few fragments of ideas for other poems and created this lovely abomination. I am quite pleased with the results.

For other entries, take a look at these things:

    ''do not say it just to say it'' my favorite line.....amazing work as always!

  • Do not say it when you don't mean it. That line was my favourite! I think your lovely abomination was brilliant!

  • And once I have said this, may I understand that such love should be requited.

  • Paul, I enjoyed your "lovely abomination." ๐Ÿ‘
