Finding a Mate

To find a mate
might ideally start with a date.
But this isn't always the case.

At any rate,
a mate
could be fate
or
a person you hate.

Don't just take the bait
of a possible mate
with whom may be late
wait.

Wait for the one to whom you think about
when you open your eyes,
when you go out.

Wait and compare this feeling to another mate.
We always have one to take their place.
Of all the drops, in all the lakes…
there must be one soul to mate.
