A prison of freedom

Filed under: poetry, msizi moshoetsi — ABRAXAS @ 1:26 pm

On the walls of the shrine of your soul
Build me a prison of freedom
Like a university
I will arrest you
Throw away the keys
I will barricade the walls
With the fires of your passion
Even your infectious smile
Shall not escape
My chains of liberty

Your laughter is arresting
My love is colonizing

I will curse you with my love
My caresses will leave fingerprints on your tender skin
Stolen love bites on your neck shall tell of our love
I will stain your heart with memories of summer

In an island of paradise
I will fly your flag
At full mast
I will chant your name
My silent mantra
With eyes wide shut
Counciousness wide awake
In this march
Of the zealots

I will celebrate you
I will build you a statue
With the tantalizing traits of a tart
I will titivate you
Till you titillate
And tilt
To my tricks
Tinkle tinkle little star

I wear your love
A proud banner in my forehead
Like a colourful tattoo

Your laughter is arresting
My love is colonizing
