BENDING THE BOUNDARIES #

Folder: 
JOURNAL # 38

ah
mirror,mirror
in your eyes
how your love
in all its extreme
to the page replies
such a lovely wooer
you are
reminiscent of
the romantics' lore
the predisposed grace
of simple melancholy
how you take up her champion
and frisk the empty rooms of
regret
for a few more treasures from
memories' hidden attic
such a gentle, tender sifter
ye has been
resurrecting your self soothing brew
of days long past the present's folly
easing the more bitter hard times
with memories of a love that can
never be again
not without, 'Bending The Boundaries' of
humanity and flesh
with the natural wages inflicted by
earthly sin
ere death...............
