Character

by

I’m a poet
a romantic
a fantasist
an illusionist
such will be my downfall

 

capture me
possess me
let me love you in reality
flatter my writer’s vanity
ink flows and unleashes
the very essence of you
you are every kind of hero
and villain to me

 

I could  never dare
to analyse
I would never want
to write
the final chapter of you

Character can describe the person you love and hate but the ink that flows is the very life force that unleashes your ultimate desires.
