...love a prisoner of hatred.

It has been his privilege 

to have lusted and captured

the object of his lust.

Lust has on occasion

turned into passions

so deep he stopped thinking.

He has experienced passion

elevated to love so sweet

he could bear nor dare look elsewhere.

He has also been down the path

where love is taken for granted

fades and brings forth indifference

Indifference is a long route

that leads away from lust

away from passion and often

leaves love a prisoner of hatred.
