Compass to My Heart
by: JP Leddy
Compass to my heart , lead the way
Pass my cynicism to a destination true
Where love is not simply a song or a poem
But real like the skin on my bone
I am tired of promises not kept and broken
Of eyes and kisses that wander
Oh compass to my heart lead on
to one whose heart knows how to love
as a lover should with devotion true

Sadly our compasses don’t always point us in the right direction when ii comes to love! I like the imagery of a compass here, it works well. I hope love finds you in 2011!

Broken promises too are a way of life.
Life gives us back what we into it.
Best comment to it is from a quote on information about yourself.
Well said, Dr. Goyal.

I hope your compass will lead you to the perfect person who will suit you–one whose eyes and kisses do not wander. I loved that line…
Beautiful, heartfelt poem, JP.
