The Metaphysics of Love

Decima Challenge 31 from Ronovan. Prompt word on A rhyme:- One

The Metaphysics of Love

Metaphysical poet Donne,
forbidding mourning with a jest,
wrote (his beloved most impressed),
Our two souls therefore, which are one
can act like compasses for fun.
He then describes a metaphor
that has seduction at it's core,
made to have a joyful ending,
two souls happily ascending,
having their fill but wanting more.
