No Cage

No Cage
Form: Epistle Sonnet 15

Your hand is always there, wrapped around mine
Eternal lover still here by my side
Your gentle touch that always spoke divine

I remind myself it’s always been mine
For you have never turned away from me
Not even when our words were crossed with rage
Instead our love grew infinitely wide
Death, how she knows she cannot stop its flow

For we belong as one in every age
In every lifetime our love waits to be
Mortal or immortal there is no cage
For our love demands our spirits are free

Now, when the veil is thin, that’s how I know
In the universe of love we’re the glow
