By Damien Knight

Her soul beats true in my heart
Her eyes a fire burning my soul
I am sure of her now, determined
Unfortunate destiny kept me apart
Don’t despise me this passion I feel
I tried, did not intend to bind myself
I am certain my heart she understands
For me this isn’t fantasy it’s real
Her slender form curved, a dancing blossom
I was desperate to erase from my mind
With hope I would let her free of my poetry
The pain of empty dreamings I fought them
I must control this unbridled passion
I dare not impose, I must not anymore
I have caused her grief enough
My lady of shadows found yet I can’t be forgiven
