After putting it off for the longest time, I finally decided to write a love poem for the Valentine Poetry Writing competition here at the firm. I thought, no use wasting away the cash prize by not joining.
Secret Love’s Call
By Midnight AnxietyThere’s a special place I know
Deep inside this heart of mine
Where I meet my secret someone
That I’ve kept safe for all my lifeI have never seen my love
Heard not a voice, nor felt a touch
But I know that she’s out there somewhere
In search of heart’s one true loveShould I accept reality?
That she may never come to me
Or should I keep my search alive
Like a gleaming beacon in the nightMy longing heart is her abode
Like a soul within a soul
And the love I feel keeps her alive
While she answers not my callAnd I shall keep this love alive…
While she answers not my call.
I quickly reached for some post-its and scribbled those words. Oh my muse, please grant me brilliance… haaays…
