Unbound Love
Form: Ivorian Sonnet 84
Prompt: Love and Infidelity
The pain of infidelity is lies
For deceit is not a pleasant disguise
In its betrayal of respect and trust
As words of love deny truth with a smile
Inside the heart is beginning to bust
Honesty matters in keeping it real
When love isn’t bound by a sacred vow
For truth in itself will always reveal
The desire for lust the heart will allow
If words truly say what the heart can feel
It won’t make vows that fade slowly to dust
Unconditional love the only how
Releasing a lover to roam awhile
The unbound heart sees with different eyes
