Couple

If you’re half of a couple
If you’re part of a pair

If, when you see them,
you’re glad that they’re there

If you’re birds of a feather
Love’s living proof

If it is you
they heal and soothe

If they really are
your North and South

your East and West
and all that’s best

your friend your lover
your for ever

I can understand why
that’s the one

you chose to
lose your head over


Auden
