Love Poem: Ultimate Sacrifice

Ultimate Sacrifice

Unrequited love
Rising from a deathlike sleep
Comfort in apprehension
Thoughts that run too deep

A strange but beautiful occurrence
Erroneous love, I did find
Life consuming emotion
A disquieted state of mind

This fire if left to burn
May exhaust my soul
Suspicion of future anguish
An insurmountable hole

Inspired fear and awe
Through the purity of my desire
Disillusioned by my own heart
Reality and lonliness conspire

The oblivion of truth
leaves fascination to reign
Avaricious for true love
Impetuous rush of pain
