Hunting Love

What a tragedy
What a deceit
Training for the heart
to break it and make it bleed

Hunting down a forbidden
untouched
unhidden

Mapping out a dream
resisting a wish
obtaining a hope
pulling at all seams

A force so strong
facing all leads
one moment
one life
one love seen as a gift

Who knew love could be
is was an attraction
Hunted love
so real
such a kill
nonfatal distraction

Your world stuck in the past
slipping away with
your one
your love

Bleaching out the shame
the dignity

Resting on passion
and desire
letting go of the kill
of tracking your own obsession
