Love Unbidden

Although I wrote it, the characater herein is not me. It is simple fiction created at 10 syllables per line.

Incisive, virulent—her dimpled smile.


Untimely, unbidden—she doth beguile.


Yet ‘tis innate, and not unlike the lie


That cowers deep within our dreams awry.


 


But dreams and desire were safely hidden


Until her dimpled smile arrived unbidden.


Be gone, ye temptress raised from Hell—


Ye keeper of chains, and ye infidel.


 


Oh maiden, know ye not my strength may fail,


That dimpled smiles may yet my heart impale?


So flee from hence, from me, else smile no more;


Be not unbidden love that I adore.

Yes, yes, as I thought - you are a romantic of the old school, one of my first loves of poetry - the romantics.
Beautiful, Michael.

Peace. Joyce

Attacked at seven.
She was on the rebound.
The devil burned had sent her to
your unsuspecting town.
And though you were
as innocent as we,
his name was Chris;
he was a boy,
and from a boy you flee.

I like your style. You have word power in cadence.
