Bridge to Fealty

Bartered memories with lust twined
Truant souls that could never bind
Carnal fancies solemnly pined
Exchanged for fealty and left behind
Hopes sacrificed; dreams resigned
Narcissistic bridges burned; amorous harbors mined
Walking along life's highway blind
Stumbled upon fertile path with opportunities lined
Fateful suitor my longing footsteps divined
Heart that was broken now realigned
Faithful partner with noble intentions my will refined
A succoring ally of the nurturing kind
Now carnal treasures canker in the dark,
steadying rays of love have shined
