We All Are Gods. Poem by Kevin East

You my Venus.
Me your Zeus.
Both rescued
From a swinging noose.
Our passions
Set loose
By stars above.
We all are Gods
When we play at love.

That panorama
Of a drama
Until the end of time.
Souls touch.
And hearts blaze
Yet burn
That whispered rhyme
Of earlier days.
We all are Gods
Flying down the freeways
Of unbridled youth.
Now at odds
With those new mornings
Where dawns
The truth.

And so
Embrace
The candlelight.
The hand you hold
And Grip so tight.
Alas -
Love is just a bird in flight.
That gently fades
With bluest
Heart rending tune.
I wonder,
Detectives of the night.
Can you
Catch me a magic moon.
So tragic
Just to even try.
As we all are Gods
You see,
Now devoid
Of battlecry.
