My Desire

From that fateful
first day we crossed
paths,

 I have dreamed of
us sharing numerous
baths.

Fantasized how we
would entwine our
bodies,

As we danced to
passion's drums...
no studies.

Books and lessons we
have abandoned, 

Our love all that
matters, though
unsanctioned.

Our families blood
feud precludes our
love flowering,

The ground stained
forever from
bloodletting.

Forbidden though it
may be, it grows
defiantly,

Stronger with each
bloody sunset.. so
passionately.

Come.. my love my
desire..let's take
flight,

For our child's
future we must
escape our plight.

Love...not hate we
must to our child
impart,

For to us God has
gifted his wondrous
work of art.
