Justified LoveA Poem by I Cast a ShadowThis is the first poem that I wrote for my lover when love was more forbidden.And there it was We met again That strange and twisted sort of friend.
I found myself And turned around I picked myself up off the ground.
Gray flame burned dim Like top I span No real color in barren land.
‘Til that one day I found a friend There was another soul in mend.
‘Twent fast and sweet Yet Black and rot These souls wove in not loose but taut.
Love and Evil Darkness and Light Oh! An ever perplexing plight.
Will it never? Sin ‘n Purity? Is this doomed by obscurity?
My flame burns hard Its spectrum full To back out now would leave me null.
Fighting the norm Gun down repeat Kill the gods and prove defeat.
With our two souls They long for One East rips West; let duality be undone. © 2011 I Cast a Shadow |
