WHERE ENDS MEET IN FAMILY LIE ~ BY THERESA NEMETH

WHERE ENDS MEET IN FAMILY

Where Ends Meet In Family Lie:

A Touch Unbenevolent In Progeny: Mine.

A Betraying Heart Flutters And Sighs

A Swooning Still Of Intent’s Sweet Confide.

Wherein Men Fall To Shatter And Stars

In Starlight Bound And In Nether Ward:

Climb Up To The Sky Through Sorrow And Wilt,

And There Thus Find Him Magic And Guilt.

In Sweet Dreams Find Evil Dark Temptations:

A Ravel’s Charm – A Maiden Beaten.

By Heart In Race In Soft And Chaste –

An Uncoaxing, Unrelenting Forced Embrace.

In Stagnation, Climax, And Fall

Do Innocent Awaken And Villain Enthrall

Those Who Sleep And Slumber In Dream

In A Place Meant Only For The Serene.

In High Hope And Endearment Of Kin –

Between Great Enemies, Great Thoughts, And Grand Friends –

Above The Tops Of Leaves And Petals,

Wherein Honor And Merit Are Birthed As Medals.

No Arrow To Mend,

No Cupid To Throw,

No Heart To Enamour

But One’s Own.

No Sword To Fight,

No Will To Might,

No Shadow Unturned,

No Love To Be Yearned.

In Women Downtroden,

And Men Unaware,

In Children Yet Known,

And Infant Where Bared:

Betrayal Persues In Deed And Good Earnest,

And The Wicked Concede Where Fair Men Are Fairest.
