Love Poem: Poetic Paradise

Poetic Paradise

Poetic Paradise


We poets feed fat 
In blissful romanticism
Outpouring our emotions
Quilling them with delight
On pages and websites

Bleeding hearts drip on paper
Tears smudge the lines
Romance lights up the hearts
Passions overflowing magically
In every visual or imaginary sight

Ecstasy flows in a poet's heart
That mortals eye as a fool's paradise
Away from facing mundane truths
Ignoring reality during these
Treasured hours of peaceful silence

We have suffered and lost
The world knows not of
Ambitions risen and fallen
Now no qualms no misgivings
Just love flowing in the river of poetry
