If it’s just the casting of a die of
chance,
It’s a cruel
world, our crossing, just a sortition
Courting and dating, a razor’s edge, just a nuance
A fantasized
life, with dreams of love and coition
To steer this moral maze is a sacred
prance,
through a
blind world that sees only with suspicion
Into the arms of sin I am forced entrance
knowingly,
to pursue this love, will require contrition
Dangerous moments, in your eyes,
lost in a trance,
Only
emphasises our untenable condition
Those private moments; a knowing, longing glance
A quiet,
subtle and shared recognition
Into a life and sanctity of
marriage,
I know we
both strive for this same ambition
Yet like the Sun and Moon, bound in
their eternal dance,
destined
never to have their love see fruition
