Penchant of a Pensive Poetess



Relieve me of this cruel,
Subterranean passion
Or douse dispiriting reason,
Cast out the angst
Heart distressed,
Regain your soothing rhythm.

Return to me
Resilience,
Revoke this grim oppression,
Please recall
Lost resolve
Compel its requisition.

Don’t consign me to
Nor evoke malign surrender,
Be wise, heart of mine,
For luring wind songs
Are the primary cause
Of many a heart’s demise.
