Imopectore

Dauntless I’am I have it in for love!
Deemed thy heart calloused when true love confide.
My heart stricken soul amidst cupid’s clap
Telling thy heart so shallow wanting instance.
Take counsel from thy impassive, irressistible trap.

Knowing a thing or two, love imp’d with wings
Like grubs proceed to bees with pointed stings
Such graceful prattle doesnt tend to amuse.
Seem tedious for thine love, oh you precieuse!

Lay to heart if thou takest love cast in pearls before swine.
Oh precieuse, swear not to sweet bosom’s charm
Thou didst let thy calloused heart reign and act so cynical
Oh swear not, sublime love in time won’t intertwine.

Very Shakespearean in style RR. Which I like personally. Liked the Biblical content and overall an excellent waxing lyrical on unrequited love and the angst caused by 'casting pearls before swine '.

I couldn't apply myself long enough to produce a fine piece as this - bravo!
and Encore!

There is such a brilliant depth to your work, with philosophy singing across the ages, it seems. Powerful and rich.

outstanding! how beautifully the words flow. your emotions are further enriched by old english feel that you have given to it. love is cruel sometimes..

tis a poem that would make the Bard proud..a classical piece with all the magic of the period..absolsutely delightful

[JelliFyshKissUs]

Did you truly write this? The classical romantic feel seems as if it should dwell in a collection of Shakespearian Poetry. I can feel this lament of deep love within the tissue coating my bones. Such melancholy from one pierced by cupid's arrow. Divine in it's delivery.

Loved the old fashioned English language reminding me of very old poet's dwelling on love............such sorrow. Really enjoyed.

A very thoughtful love poem…
Wrote in a different way…
Liked it…

[Sweet_pale_cacophony]

This has an archaic style of writing (if i am not wrong)..but then i like so much the pain that a 'calloused heart' seems to carry within.There is a strange romanticism in that too..ain't there...:)

[Ruth]

Goodness! The use of language here is outstanding!
A perfect write, if I may say lol
Stricken, bitten, torn and shattered heart portrays the feelings!
Excellent!
