A Voyage of Love
In the realm of the elopement
I have sailed beyond boundaries.
A divide I have crossed
Beyond man's judgement of creed and color
Indoctrinated have I become
Of her then be told of a color
As humans we were made
With a heart that ticks our pulse
Far, far aways she is,
And there I have gone in elopement
Leaving behind a color like mine,
To embrace a bond destined
A Voyager I have traversed
Upon turbulent waves on sail
Days counted and months over
In eagerness of the whiff of her muskiness
A suffocating sweetness
To sleeps of a several bout of spells
A fiery angel she is
In the Eldorado of our world
Cherubs and Seraphs all around
Trumpeting a glorious union =
Where distance and color is abrogated
In the symbolic semblance of humanity
And on the turbulent surf seas of our love
Have we traversed to the plain end
In the harmony of a blissful buoying
Have we buoyed the bloom of our bond from bondage
Together in this blissful nuptial
Is disparity distant as abrogated.
