Stolen passion

Stolen passion

A Poem by EmpressPoetess
"

Historical romance

"

Oh! My darling Reed, what shall I do?
I know the danger of loving you
Oh, but I refuse to see it as so
I shall die if ever you should go
*~~~~~*
You've stolen my heart, you thief
To awaken not in your arms
will only have me in a fit of grief
Could my yearning heart
take the pain of us apart?
*~~~~~*
Your seaman’s life is no life
For a lady such as myself
but I will glady give it all up
to be your lover and wife
*~~~~~*
I know I am bequeathed
To marry another
But no other man can ever
Give me such passion as this
No other’s lips could ever
Drown me in his dizzying kiss
*~~~~~*
Your world is full of danger and greed
But I must go with you, my Reed
Else live a life without your touch
The idea of such living is just too much!
*~~~~~*
I could not bear to face
The thought of another woman
Held in your fiery embrace
So take me, my love! Take me
With you to sail the high sea!

Written with grace and charm... love knows no bounds and love on the run is better then wandering this life alone. You are great at the romantic writing.

Wow. I loved this because even though it's written in a small poem or an excerpt, it surely is filled with roller coasters and love and passion. Brilliant. I wonder how the rest of the book will turn out because this first part has me hooked. Great write - I think you did great.
