Forbidden Love
He stood solid as a rock
His brawny but cautious frame spoke volumes
Ready to defend
Ready to fight
His unwavering strength deserved respect
He deserved loyalty
After all, he was a lover, not a fighter
His protective embrace held a thousand “I love you’s!”
While his eyes dripped of oceans
So deep and so blue
Penetrated straight through to her soul
Arms so wide and vast
He tucked her safely
Under his secure umbrella of wings
Softly, he caressed her aches and pains away
Leaving tender muscles
Ready for the next day
About this poem
This poem came from an old picture I found earlier this year (2/2023). Behind my ex and I, stood an old friend that always tried to get my attention. We found out earlier this year, it was just never meant to be.
