IT WAS NOT LOVE
It was not love beneath night skies
That something special in his eyes
Embraced in arms wrapped tight around
And muted all distracting sounds
Paired off, alone, romance in guise
They lay so soft, the subtle ties
Like ivy crept on wanton thighs
The tightening of tethers bound
It was not Love
Crossed laces tangled now in lies
Desperate still, she always tries
A mercy plea from so far down
Beneath her pride, where all she found
Vehemently, one still denies
It was not love
