desired love
(This poem was born out of Romeo's balcony scene monologue, from Romeo and Juliet and me using "what light through yonder window breaks" to playfully complement females with whom I was familiar, I playfully spun, "Hark, what light through yonder window breaks; it is beauty, a goddess, divine, the echoes, of rhapsody, the sweetest, of lullabies." I liked what I had spun together and decided to use that framework to construct a new piece of romantic poetry, building and constructing upon what I had, until this piece/poem was finally formed.) |
