Romance’s Shadow Poem by Alan Strand

Romance’s Shadow



Get off my heart
Heavy stone of pain,
Let my spirit
Rise from the dead
And soar
Above this loneliness,
Let me glide
Towards a golden sunrise.

Where is Love?
My re-inflating heart is yearning
For the savage rush
Of lust
That precedes the falling.

I am here,
Hiding inside
Romance’s shadow.
