Measure for Measure by Mike Williams 01/17/2016 @ 3:46 P.M.

I do not want false and feigned emotions. 
Crockodile tears, and words of silken lotion.  
Not secrets, and games of slap-and-tickle.  
Who cares for frivolity, both feckless and fickle?  

I do not want lofty love too high to aspire, 
For simple pleasures hold my deepest desire.  
Truth, honor, integrity and probity love is to me.  
I don't care if there is plenty of fish in the sea.  

I long for one great love to call my own.  
A heart with room built for one alone.  
For I love completely and offer up its treasure.  
I only want a love equal, measure for measure.
