Love

A Poem by: GhostWriter17

_________________




Love is a feeling that binds me
Never does it confine me
Rather, it defines me.

I love the feeling, it sends me reeling
Floor to ceiling
It brings healing.

I am the Princess of this emotion
Oh, what an ocean
Of free-flowing motion!

My friends say friendship saves the day
Brings color to gloomy gray
I say "nay".

Love is the one true conqueror
It outshines the somber
Like my lover in knight's armour.

I am wise as I am caring
Forever feeling, sharing
For my people, I'd be daring.

I'd give my life to defend ones I love
I'd soar, a dove
To the heavens up above.

And yet, with my joy and bliss
I sense this:
Something is truly amiss.

A shadow overtakes the land
Burning it with a fiery hand
A Hellfire, a circular band.

No escape from this prison
For the Dark Ones have arisen
To conquer this world, in my vision.

We are safe no longer
They grow stronger
Until I ponder.

I ponder, for there the vision ends
When the darkness descends
And there are no friends.

Whatever it means, I shall overcome
The obstacle before it has won
For I am not crude or dumb!

When darkness come, I be ready
Holding Love, so steady
Cadence, I, trustworthy.

With might and magic, I'll succeed
And never will I recede
Until I have no air to breathe.
