And Into Eternity We Were Destined, Paired

And Into Eternity We Were Destined, Paired I dreamt of the romantic silken bed we shared As night's heaving soft-breath matched your beauty divine And into eternity we were destined, paired To eat love's sensual feast, forever entwined. Among the heart's glowings and sweetest of treasures Lives again, first kiss from your voluptuous lips Life gave a plenitude of love beyond measure Yet that heavenly joy away we both let slip. When the dying sun its saddest weeping rays cast We knew not that fate and time was so very short As in deep fervor, we thought love forever lasts And its faithful renderings nothing could abort. Alas! Innocence was the blade that our love slew. In youth's blindness, tragic renderings, I lost you. Robert J. Lindley, 4-09- 2011 Sonnet, Doubles ( Reality Of Life, Its Many Hidden Blades That Slash ) A memory of youth and loss..... ************************* Love's Depths- Feastings Of Sensual Pleasures From within its breath, that intolerable creep swirls of dimming mist, echoes of shimmering pains agonizing as a spear-blade plunged in deep harvest of the dark- evidence, ill-gotten gains. Reality- none but the strongest will survive in this universe, wherein darkness battles light man, a creature of mortal flesh- briefly alive vainly celebrates, banquets of his blinded sight. Dream, its glowings- rivers of nirvana and love to be, to hold, true blessings of romantic glee amidst brevity of life, this world's push and shove paradise, undefeated castle, you and me. The moment, its bounty, magnificent treasures Life's truth, Love's depths- feastings of sensual pleasures. Robert J.
