Extinguished for many years
when words of love were scorned
awakened by sojourned light
and steadfast will it burn.
And of this fire
which circumstance has built
litanies of desire
to plague or arouse your wit.
How shall I parry your intrusion
into my every casual thought
and in the martyrdom of freedom
where the chains of love are wrought?

A well articulated story from the heart penned with insight. Poems from the heart are usually the best as readers easily capture the essence and are able to relate with them. A lovely poem indeed. Thanks for sharing. Please read my poem MANDELA - THE IMMORTAL ICON.
