Poetry: Love’s Labour

Lust too soon
fades the moon
body freely given
reveals the lie
a swift retreat
you’ll wonder why
no genuine beginning.
Prance with care
hold lust near
dearly darkly hidden
tests the tide
no small feat
you’ll deeply sigh
head surely spinning.
Slow the fire
grace keeps desire
from being driven
then is found
a deeper sweet
you’ll truly fly
pendulum is swinging.
Reveal yet slow
share the soul
release is forbidden
then grows sure
the passion wells
you’ll happily cry
love wryly grinning.
Meted fervor grows
true love flows
you’ll be smitten
tamed the restless
though no defeat
you’ll soar high
together just beginning.
Rob, this is beautiful.
Thank you so much Georgia! I am glad you get it too.
I am younger than you, I think in a couple of years, ill smarten up and be where you are 🙂 lots of mistakes to be made first
Yes, I surely get that. But perhaps I can yet spare you just one or two of the mistakes that I have made so you don’t end up like me at 53.
I am honestly making fewer than I would had you not spoken up about it, i couldve spiraled in a big way. Just give me the one for another few poems, to ruminate on 🙂
Well I am certainly so very happy that I could help you in that way. I do care about your wellbeing, but I also realize that I need to mind my p’s and q’s and be respectful. What did you mean Just give you the one for another few poems, to ruminate on?
the one happy mistake 🙂 i am having fun.
Well you can have and do whatever the fuck you damn well please! I am here to support you, not tell you what to do. I am sorry if I overstep my boundaries. Just be safe and take care of you, that’s all.
