resolve

 

I fell in love

at a speed date...


For five and forty seconds:

Tender looks, witty repartee,

Nature's rhythm, our heartbeats

Treading the same measure...


Fill in the rest of that

Well-played act, will ye?


For five and one hundred thirty seconds:

With great #resolve, 

We tackled the predicament,

Weighed our bank accounts,

Career prospects, credit scores,

She noted my shoe size,

I discreetly inspected her teeth,

We enquired about family's health,

Checked if history supported future...


Then, without much (more) ado,

We said, "I love you..."
