The Theme That Compels Me, Lovely You Poem by Captain Cur

The Theme That Compels Me, Lovely You

Rating: 5.0


These lines I write cannot go unrehearsed
reciting to the image that I knew
this voice that shakes exemplifies my verse
and the theme that compels me, lovely you.
Words denied the magnificence of sight
foraging like a creature half sustained
dreams that rage unremembered in the night
awaken with a passion unrestrained.
When the ways of pride acted as my host
performing on the platform of pretense
love cheered on with a brittle bumbling toast
shattered by what it feigned to represent.
Oft I repeat and memorize these lines
when my words filled then destroyed your angelic mind.

To read this, and to feel how this lines came out from you...that is like an exploration of feeling, to absorb your words...hmmm...and that last line, it just subtle one but able to crush all the hardest one, but fragile heart! ..Beautiful Dark romance by Captain! :)
