Stolen Moments

Love mideveal, so trying my hand at it..

 

 

I dream of him as I lie sleeping
Upon a pillow of softness, damp
Tears I shed for one as he
My truth, my heart.

Yet he does not see

Nor feel, my pain

The tears I shed

Each and every day.

Alas he alone holds the key
To open on whim as he so wishes
Yet it is I who suffer
like none other

My heart shattered
Like none other before

Distant are the memories

Of dreams told on sweetened ear.

 

The stars,

Tearfully I stare towards the sky

What beauty they hold

Yet beauty in my heart has died.

 

Then I weep..

For him, unattainable though he may be

My heart shouts out

Yet my thoughts refuse to see.

 

Oh my love..

I beg for mercy
Plead for my dear life
Release me.

Turn to me the winds of anger
Lash out, I beg
Pour forth your power of revenge
Against one such as me

Release me from the misery I alone hold
In the palm of my hand, my heart
Soul. All he possess
Yet I cannot turn away.

Forgive me, I beg
Eyes closed from deep shadows
they cross my thoughts
of right and wrong.

Forgive me...

I beg on knees that bleed
As does my heart
For him
Only him.

My words thrown to the wind,
Of fury, revenge, coldness
Misery lashing out
For only a fool.

Tears fall gently

On my pillow of softness
For truth comes forth

Stolen moments are they..

And softly I  whisper...

forgive me...

My Lord...

 

Forgive me....

[Patches I'm not so new..]

Hummm I like it of course, I has a true sound to it somethig a married lady would pray for I assume "My lord"
is the lady's husband and she is begging forgiveness for. if not actually being unfaithful at least toying with the idea and perhaps daring a kiss or two with an armorus swain. Did I get it right this time?

Beautiful and sad imagry with this write, love the midevil feel.

great job with the flow and expression!

[Sean M. Addams]

i thought you did an excellent job on this.... detail and imagery were very impressive... overall a very deep and creative write... nice work...

[Fran Marie]

A powerful longing for a forbidden love, perhaps? It expresses much torment of the mind, heart and soul,

many ways to read this one ~ at any rate it's a beautiful piece so nicely done:)

[deeps]

This is wonderful, it's powerfully written
with wonderful emotion tugging at it.
This is a very well written expressed write.

Very nice, reminds me or Eponine from Les Miserables
