Forced My Hand

Forced my hand! After being scourged, scorched, sored and sold by love, l was no more a believer for she was a deceiver! The nights l wept alone expecting roses from a company of two, oh what a fool! She was my queen, to him a quean. I asked for the truth when she kissed me good morning coming from him or them, her voice quavering with Lies... So l quaffed the whiskey and gin just to feel sane, l Let her go.... Why was l too blind not see beyond the illusion that is Love? Months, years and a decade later... I am renewed, my thought process refreshed, positivism my state of mind no longer posessed by the venomous pliant of romance. Then there was that gentle lady! Thy heart once again after a long time became pliable. Like a parvenu, l had to overcompensate for all the times it rained in my soul... so l fell for you! You made sense like the sun rising in the morning, She was the definition of perfection. Which made me a participative partisan to her campaign into my heart.... I could not let a goddess slip through my time line, Yes l was no more a believer yet l needed a deliverer just to be inspired, you see Love can be a beautiful illustration with no restriction. Here l go, on my knees invigorated by you, what you do, how you move, invocation as l give in.... a diamond prepared for your finger the death of a bachelor!
