Romantic Drama
Within love burns a desirous, amber flame,
It burns beyond the grasp of our control,
The passion pyre on which lovers enrol,
And first kisses seem just a parlour game.
Such sweet sensation as lips then proclaim,
What lies beneath a heart and leads the soul,
Romantic drama unfolds on love’s scroll,
In vibrant words that dare utter her name
Without mere thought. And yet, her name surrounds
The feelings that toss and turn so deep within,
So deep inside it must be known as sin,
While pleadings yearn and strain to feel much more,
Like anger it steams against a rising tide,
Whilst yielding where surreal senses collide,
A heart then claims not to love but adore.
