Her is my criterion

Notes to this poem…
When you find someone
Incredibly attractive –
Despite a laugh that’s –
Incredibly annoying –
If found in others – that’s love!

Notes to this poem…
When did THAT ever –
Become attractive to you?
Do you remember?
When did your tastes change so much?
To find that look appealing?

Notes to this poem…
Love has a price –
Most people pay that fair price –
But some get a deal –
There are those who over pay –
And those who take it away

Love can be –
What you see
In another –

Including themselves –
Don’t see in themselves –
Including when it
Does not exist
