Ode to Love

I feared love; its responsibility; its alienation; while hiking upon high, spinning through loneness, etching such intimacy: those acrobatics; that trapeze art; those miracles at moments our trembles. 
  We seek credence, aloft our ideals, at castles our pampered souls: that bold kiss or that taste such sweat, laughing while acting giddy: those jiffy responses; that inner resonance; our hearts at butterflies. I would to cry—our pantomime souls, becoming so intricate—at turns, so jaded, this thing about innocence, as to have scolded our mirrors: those captive feelings; those rich sensations; those thoughts as becoming dual—while dueling with life, our songs so private, our cadence a fabulous ritual; to live as mystics, our bodies resonating, while to share souls: that cello of love; that flute of agreements; those tides as lunar our remarkable rhythms: that treasured feeling; those rich debates; our pillows as shrines!  We mature for love; at essence for love; courting our souls for love: our intelligence waning; our hearts as stenographers; our minds observing that inner phenomenon: that steep baritone; that growing muscle; our diaries seeping into our intestines.  I adored love; this thing he feared; for such was nature our blue skies: to dance through feelings; to chance emotions; to enjoy our pristine youths: that treble beat; our shrimps with rice; our music so dissimilar: if be it our lives, as skyglass dungeons, our tears strewing over graves: to muse as angels; this feeling of love; our arts as mental museums.  We cherish such motion, stressing such terrors, committing by pledges through fears; to live our legacies, communing through touch, our fantasies stippled with images; as living forever, as brief our moments, terrified to lose our love: that bashful closeness; our sultry passions; that sketch as wands our minds—as admonished souls, at mercy our lives, conditioned by household woes.  I couldn’t reason, beyond that of beauty, as it carried us so far: that inner helicopter; that mental rocket; that contour beyond our madness; to kiss as dying; to undress as living; our hearts to fly.
  Years morph into sadness; a man so jaded; a song without luster: this intricate drum, looking to abandon self, this stream of observations; to gamble love, as gamboling joys, while hectic that steep resistance; those cymbals of mischief, accused of dying, while rich that physical magnet; as courted our eyes, laughing at suspicions, at arts this craving for affections; to move this way, a pair of jumping-jacks, a bit more richer with time; as giving less, or giving more, at such deep expectations; to harness tears, while cleansing hearts, this chorus a yogic star.  We’re more to love, falling as rising, our minds perusing our lives.
