Love

My demeanor, the aftermaths of recklessness A child once, a man to soon The glory to my name gone, the grace faded Change do I offer no opposition to Derogatory remarks, have I afforded restraint A new cry heard; my steps subtle. Your age, can I speak not of Every moment, filled with more youth than the first Memories created; gems remembered Your hand in mine, a single entity we formed For each other, were our lives The joy spent, a cost to you. A meeting of hearts, the night inspired The ecstasy unspoken, but felt Our naivety the error, unconsidered An unthought conception, implanting itself Impulse driving our passion, forth Creators we became; the end I found. Your figure lost, its voluptuousness Atrocious had you seemed, to my young mind The tips of your caress on my palm, offered no connection Conditions to my love, a reality Together could we be, never again The burden was yours, my eyes were free. To witness I chose, an obligation it was The lights so bright, intensity I felt Your tears and screams, nourishing life The mistake shadowed, by bare beauty My hands were gifted with purity; my luggage fallen Reconciliation was to late, but my hands knew no release. My depart planned, my destination unmoved His gentle touch, redirecting my path The regrets unknown, my chin's resemblance I admire Your forgiveness, I do not desire Mutual feelings, the base of our relations A conditional love, the root of an unconditional one. Once a burden, now a source of joy The end of had I decided, devoid of reconciliation His subtle cries, owning my love.
