Finding Love Without Seeking Poem by Martin Lochner

seeing every threat you pose
feeling the heraldic yearning anyway
wishing your unlikely shiny divinity

sincerely persuading the suspicion
that love will fail and the lusty spark will
combust the spirit
explode the heart

leaving a burned phantom
that poisons everything with hurt

then walk away, flee the dirtiness
clenching aloneness as a old winter coat in summer
love will stumble on thee and find thee

one day truth with the same lonely fate will be smiling back at you

destined loveliness discovered in the supermarket queue
undying tenderness sharing the same taxi cab with you

to love do not force it
and everyone will say it was spontaneous
