About Lesbos
To visit this fabulous isle
Has been our dream
But from our reality a far cry
So far away it makes me scream.
We have been friends in hiding
Loving each other oh so very much
Always shedding tears when parting
But to live apart we must.
Our society so filled with hate and lies
And hypocrisy wears so many hats
As the various clothes of the passerbys
One day we shall be free at last
No more loving on the sly
And ignominy a thing of the past.

And hypocrisy wears so many hats

No more loving on the sly

This one is a ''nice and clean'' one. Perhaps I shall try to write another one, more daring and for that other more explicit section. Regards, Robert.

Beautiful and intriguing. It's emotionally profound knowing that some have to bear the distance between and have a short time together.
Great work.
Great work.

Even today in our ''free'' society, I am certain that many couples (gays and lesbians) must live such difficult situations. PS: I started a competition having to do with Lesbos.......and the poems must be submitted in Sonnet form. Kisses, Robert.
