Love’s Desire - Soul’s Redemption

Can’t be annoying but can’t be something I’m not - a free verse poem.

In came the storied human desire -
A relevant oath to dispatch the rhetoric.
An enigma venting
A longing so enraged;

Completing that moral defense,
A blend of passion and negative worth;

A pittance that jarred the arrows
Of shields long broken.

A thousand years of enamored fortunes;

Behemoths boasting of rare triumphs,
Lunar destruction fed through auspicious quarters;

Skies embossed by such intrepid veils.
And closures meant for gory decimation.

A time of duty, and a declaration
Of change,

And a sobering cry yielded
To ingratiate the gods -
Their life of appeasement
Generously laid before them.
