Secret Entry

New Perception 
I cherish humility with delight
and dwell in excessive  simplicity,
Impervious to nefarious actions of men,
longed for exquisite pleasure in my time.

Finding cool solace in celestial bliss,
My pain and sorrow sublime quietly,
`til I met a Vixen with lilac lace,
Who was defiant and stubborn like a dove.

This Empress tainted my image,which made
me aggressively splenetic;planning
to fire a ricochet on her damn skull!,
but I couldn`t,due to my perception.

How ironic?,if it were yesterday,
when I was incognito;I would have
pursue this quest with vigor and interest,
time past,that had fallen into oblivion .
It`s kismet!as zephyr moves the willows.

Nice description. I was worried when it said acrostice because true love was 8 words. Pleasantly surprised that you chose a different word and so aptly described it :) good luck in the contest!
