Love

My love is a practicing ascetic So humble beyond imagination Many view his beliefs as pathetic He, as a duty, determination A man filled with incredible knowledge His selfless offerings far from shallow Studied at a prestigious college For his beliefs, he faces the gallow People often ridicule, nonchalant Some furtive in manner, some quite vicious Ne'er comprehending nature so gallant Alas, self-serving their own ambitious So why do I feel my own hearts desire Is being led directly to the fire
