Long Ago

Long ago a star twinkled 
Across the ocean blue
It pierced my heart so
Recklessly I fell in love with you
Stranger from afar 
Ghostly and unknown 
Words that trapped my soul
Tethered and unworn
Madness and fury 
Passion and pleasure
Quilled words on paper
Better than treasure
Love poems and sonnets
Reeling my heart in
Dastardly poetic symphony
Nymphomania and sin
Trapped in your ink
Propelled by your quill
Forgotten odyssey’s 
Still give me a chill
Moonbeams of madness
Two shadows as one
On the ships bulkhead
Having some fun.
