An attempt at an Italian octave. Eight lines, 10 syllables a line rhyme scheme abbaabba.
There is calm and analytical peace
There is empathetic duets complete
There is satisfaction minus coercion
When authoritarian whims succeeds
Then amplification of need thrusts
Us together with intensely loving trust
While gratefully hoping our time proceeds

We Fit
There is fire and passionate completionThere is calm and analytical peace
There is empathetic duets complete
There is satisfaction minus coercion
When authoritarian whims succeeds
Then amplification of need thrusts
Us together with intensely loving trust
While gratefully hoping our time proceeds
