Heart on Trial

The story of a heart accused of denail and found guilty on trial.

[Prosecutor: Love]
[Defendant: Heart]

All Rise!
Court is now in session
Silence!
Defence is now in question

Lawsuit of Love
Heart's on trial
Prosecutor's Complaint:
"Denial!"

Order in Court!
The judge proclaimed
Following Heart's argument:
"I cannot be blamed"

Objection!
The prosecution attacked
"Heart's in love,
but denies the fact"
 
Overruled!
Came the judge's correction
"Maybe not denial,
but overprotection"

Your Honor!
Heart explained
"I need not love,
I am self-contained"

All Rise!
Heart's Verdict is in
"Guilty as charged"
Let judgment begin

Sentence:
To love and let be
To risk being broken
In exchange - be free

Court is now dismissed!
Prosecution won its part

Case Closed:
Lawsuit - Love vs Heart

This reminds me of some of the poems in Alice's Adventures Through Wonderland, I can't tell you why but it does.

Probably one of the most original poems that I've read on Writer's Cafe, the concept and the execution were brilliant, the message behind it all was very true, above all it is a great piece of writing!

Thank you for entering it in, "Be Experimental."

Very clever and I love the rhyme scheme and simply everything about it. Nice ;-)

Love the unique presentation! Having the courage to love/give unconditionally and the strength we build within ourselves by giving "of" ourselves is something we all should have the depth to embrace. To me, despite the pain, both love and heart triumph in the end. Inspiring. Amazing!

What a unique form of love poem! You've turned the idea of loving and being loved upside down by putting your thoughts into a constructed near-playlet. I can almost hear it being read ..

' Order in Court! The judge proclaimed Following Heart's argument: "I cannot be blamed" ' Now that is wonderfully original and emotional writing.
