I was looking at some old poems.  This one I wrote in 2016.  Thought I would repost it!

 

Let us escape from the eyes of judgement to a province where nothing is forbidden. Where lovers are no longer hidden, who roam freely under lustrous stars. Oh beloved, follow the trail of silent tears, for it will lead you to where your heart desires. Meet me at the field where wild horses stray, upon the meadow of unconditional infatuation. Within the garden of fragile sensual petals, all inhibitions will be lost in its aroma. My heart will no longer live in a prison, free to love the one, connected to its beat. The greatest battle for a warrior, is not at war, but for the one who eases the pain in his soul. His sword yearns for blood, but his heart, to cherish the warm breath of his lover. The greatest crusade is the quest for companionship, the most rewarding triumph is the one for love. Meet me at the pastures of sweet harmony, where for eternity; it shall be a time for us.

Thank you Andrea, however, this was not for the contest... But, I can see, why you would think that. The contest was inspired by another old poem of mine, it is called last samurai. It is from my previous life...

My heart will no longer live in a prison, I do believe hearts where never meant to live in the confinement of barred feelings, your poetry is always ethereal and lighty. I know its not a word, heh, I figure when your in need of a word, and it doesn't exist, then make one up, take care dear friend xo

"Let us escape, where lovers are no longer hidden" These thoughts curl softly around me. There are so many emotions tangling around your words. ~ Brandy

"meadow of unconditional infatuation"...brings a soothing whisper in my heart. This one surely takes me to another world of delicate yet courageous love. You are a wizard of words :)

Thank you, I believe how you use words is very important in poetry as well as poetic techniques like alliteration and assonance..

That's how love should be--no judgement--nothing forbidden. Many face the pain you describe in some cultures where society dictates the norms. Thanks for re-posting, SO--the final line says it all:it shall be a time for us.

You are so right... then there is other factors like different religions, different colour.... whilst love has no eyes... Thanks

Love, a stream of no fences.. of no conditions.. of no regulations.. of no connection.. to reach such dimension, we have to meet the pain of the pleasure.. A great poem to dive into the wealth of its depths! So beautiful and profound! A great delight to read, Silent One! My deepest regards and blessings.
