Poem Title:
Poem
A fever in the midst of a winter chill; a shiver in the heat of the summer sun- For love is not a choice but the kismet of undeniable passion and kindness. And that is what love is to me- the thing that satisfies my starvation and quenches my ambitious thirst. It frees my inhibitions and has regard for my soft heart when it’s humbly meek. Gratifies and satiates my every desire- answers my longing for reasons as to who I am... completely and fully. For I can be a lost doe in the timbered wilderness, and love bestows its perpetual hope like a strong buck protecting me as if I were his one and only true companion. I need not wealth nor riches in life; fear not dying without knowing the fame so many yearn to gain- but today, I say to you- I only need the kind of love... that brings me to my longing knees. For there is no other profound emotion as great as love- no other action that can soothe a soul when pain calls its name. So, when the ebon sky calls your name ever so slightly, when the dread of tomorrow trickles down the curve of your back, think of me- and know that I am the love you have searched for all your life. And that is what love is to me, my sweet- you near me when you are beside me, or when you are a million miles away. And… We shall live on knowing that our love is the fairytale they all envy.
