Lovers’ Journey
Form: Keats’ Sonnet
The Sapphic flame that burns inside my heart
when love begins to melt my solitude
as moonlit eyes invite a longer gaze.
My senses flourish here in passion’s art
as feminine echoes invoke the mood
that soothes the soul with serenity’s song.
As lovers journey through life’s misty haze
my companion as shadows drift apart
so, destinies revealed in love conclude.
For it is in those far-off distant days
we find that love is where we still belong
a miracle that rises o’er the clouds.
with years that pass we see that love is strong
as closeness binds but never overcrowds
