[Poem] Verdict




You have created a sinner, 
Right out of me; 
A crime of passion, 
Greater than hell's fury. 

I shall therefore sentence you 
To a lifetime in my mind; 
To be my first thought at dawn, 
And last glimpse at dusk. 

I shall therefore sentence you 
To a lifetime of satin sheets, 
Lingering kisses and whispers 
Of nights of bare skins. 

I shall therefore sentence you 
To the depths of my eyes, 
The cage of my heart, 
A fountain of sweet love. 

And I shall be obliged, 
To offer no parole, 
For the tenure of premises, 
Within the depths of my flesh.
