Love Child

It always starts with a thought
Beauty sought
Lust stoked
And then a heart unequally yoked

It is fuelled with enchanting words
Fickle bonds
Future mortgaged
And then a mind willingly caged

It is reinforced with purposeful deeds
Vanity seeds
Covetousness gratified
And then a love child
