Love Described

Vasilia Koutsivitis '25

The books and movies must do it justice

A bond so strong it ties souls together 

A thousand ships; a gift from no novice 

What a man will do, he’ll brave the weather 

When they met, he simply had to pursue 

Now the priests will not hear his confessions

He must say the words so she knows it’s true 

She’s his life; center of his attentions 

Love is what I describe, what people need  

Fated hearts can fit like a glass slipper

Oh yes, love is a fragile thing indeed;  

But even time could not heal quicker 

However, I admit I just observe 

This love I’m still too young to deserve
