Juliette, Move on, Honey

A burgeoning heart filled with Romeo alone,
Olive-green Capulet eyes,
Vestal virginity veiling feminine mystery,
Severed by a blade before the morning light.
Sister, we don’t camp on the same ground.
They take us higher now, higher,
Deeper into the darkest night.
Sweet words are a trade, bought and sold:
A come-on or reward for delight.
Sister, we don’t camp on the same ground.
Whose lips our lips have kissed, and fled
Angels of the morning, left lying alone.
Dew on the threshold, a mark on the door,
The only reminder that hearts met here.
Sister, we don’t camp on the same ground.
So Juliette, take your incense,
And on another altar let it burn
String smaller beads on a lesser Rosary.
Bequeath contentment to your daughters.
Mother, we don’t camp on the same ground.

I'd try and describe the impression I got, but I feel it would all come out rather idiotically, if that's a word. Religion and lust? An entertaining combination indeed.
"Sweet words are a trade, bought and sold:"
I liked that.
Another notable write.
Keep writing. |

I love how you capture a feeling and put into words, but not obviously enough to lose interest. Great write. I really enjoy reading your work. Keep it up! |
