Dreaded Love
Cursed and hissed at, all he could was stare
Feeling dejected and rejected, he wiped the tears off his cheeks
A lost cause he thought to himself, a case where no one can be redeemed
He staggered to his feet, looked at the face of his punishers
Smirking, his bloodshot eyes pierced the audience who had stoned him
Condemned for loving the wrong woman
A case of Romeo and Juliet, a love story full of tragedy
He screamed out aloud with a sharp cry
Why should we fight love ?
Why should we go against each other cause we of different colors ?
Or because we are of different clan
She was his Beyonce with gorgeous look
Her stature was that of Nicki Minaj, the full package
She got him high as if he did hard drugs
All for her love,he was ready to lay down his life
She was to die for, with her beside him he could conquer the world
A fair damsel she stood afar, looking ahead at her lover
With an elegance of a peacock and feline steps of cat, she raced to her lover
With teary eyes, biting her lips she hugged him from behind
He was her hero, saving her love countless of times
She loved him more than she ever loved anyone
With him she was fearless as Diana
Both lovers stood in trance as they world flew right past them
Holding on tight they breathe their last as the shots were fired
Lovers till death do us part they were
With a name like fatty acid, I just had to stop in. A gripping poetic tale here. Loved the image you chose for the poem and the references to both old and new mythical figures was effective. How long have you been writing poetry?
Thanks for the comment
Quite some while
My niche on Steemit would be Poetry
