POETIC ELEGANCE

Poetic Elegance in love and death
 
A silent soul fully in control
Minding his business when in she strolled
Unknowing to him SHE was about to break his mould
A love like this could not have been foretold
 
A simple exchange of notes for love divine
Ignoring the warning of the friendly swines
She saw the plus where everyone saw a minus sign
Never expecting their hearts and souls would intertwined  
 
Boring to others yet He intrigued her senses
Fully unaware of the future emotional expenses
But also giving in with no false pretenses
Fully truthful to themselves and each other letting down all defenses
 
Intellectually beat but emotionally victories
Him falling in love with her was painfully obvious
But knowing her dad would be hell fully furious
They creeped around acting all mysterious
 
A day spent like kids at the funfair
Staring into her eyes and just smelling her hair
He knew right then and and there that they were the perfect pair
Holding on to her hand and falling in love with her without a care
 
Dinner with mom went good and promises were made that could not be kept
As dad was old school and to the new ways he could not adapt
Personally i think he was mentally inapt
Not knowing that a woman can be in love and kept without feeling trapped
 
The love was true but not granted free will to grow and like weeds
It was painfully plucked out without considering true loves needs
All the begging and all the pleads
Did not help as dad was a man of deeds
 
The moment He left for school she was given to another
Nothing could save her not even the pleads of her mother
As dad had seen the goodbye embrace  and chose to rather
Plan his demise of their love as she would later discover
 
Days became weeks and no word was heard back  
He said to himself when i get back things will be on track
Counting the days as his return  would solidify their pact
Only to come home to find his whole life was wrecked
 
A letter explained the reasons but his heart did not comply
As he stood there praying to God that this was all a lie
He never even got a chance to say goodbye
As she chose to die rather than marry another guy
 
A heart forever scarred with bruises that are evident
Living without her in this way makes even breathing seem  irrelevant
But being unhappy - SHE WOULD AGREE - is UNintelligent
As she died knowing she was only his - POETIC ELEGANCE
