War for Love

April 11th, 2005


  

Memory

Our love shall become a memory

You said

As your heart was taken from me


History

Our love shall change history

My tears shed

As you went riding the sea


So many wars

Your country has endured

Wars for power

Wars for vengeance

And wars for wealth


This time it will be

A war with no mercy

A war for thee

A war for love


I’ll send my army

To bring your throne to me

I’ll siege your country

Until you surrender to me


Hear me gods

I’ll write my history

Against all odds

I’ll build my destiny


Through the times

I lost so many battles

But this war I shall win

In the name of love


I’ll break every heart

That loves me

I’ll burn every soul

That haunts me

I’ll be yours

& yours only!


In the times of war

Men die

& I might…

If my time comes

Don’t cry but write…

I was too wild to live

I was too loving to die!

Comments

   War for Love reflected unintentionally a poetry type called Epic Poetry. And I was honored to find it successfully recognized as my first Epic Poem though it was not actually meant to represent a historical character or era.
