Transformation

A Poem by R.a.Tru

Growing up I had an image of love.
Gentle, sweet compassion like a snow dove.
Still a mystery because it was hard to catch.
But once I found it, I already began to latch.

I didn't understand what caused such a strong force.
Took me to the unknown but stayed on course.
I was the jokey insisting more from the horse.
Love led to happiness, so I will endorse.

I couldn't help it, so I let the feelings shine.
Why wouldn't I, when they left me in sublime.
Two young lovers, how could that be a crime.
No thoughts to discourse, but wait give it time.

Love gave it all, but it can also take it away.
Left me suddenly without nothing to say.
Time is the enemy because it changes.
Introduces new feelings to trap us in cages.

Ripped apart from the feelings once had.
A trip without any reward, can't be so bad.
Attempts to ignore and hide the facts.
Cause you to lose yourself and the tracts.

Wandering and searching the golden blue skies.
Craving the taste of love, so listen to my cries.
The transformation is soon to be complete.
From light to dark, from fluid to concrete.

From sage, wage, rage, caged.

I take my bow and leave the stage.
Thank you for coming and I hope enjoyed the show.
Of the Dove who took my heart and turned me to crow.
