My Paramour

My Paramour, your Inamorata

The flame that kindles in our hearts

Not yet lit, but as a martyr

Would burn and grieve,

And then let us play our parts

And should I leave,

As the sun dawns above our heads?

Yes, your Inamorata will leave, My paramour,

I shall Leave these dirty beds



Oh! The slew of hours that do drag on

Eternity is much to abide,

But abide I shall

Until eternity is gone

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I'm not sure where I got this idea from.
The words "Paramour" and "Inamorata" are both beautiful words, which I love.
I don't even know what this poem is about, but it's different to my others.

i loved this poem.

I think it is about an eventful night, yet not so eventful in the eyes of the female (or male, whatever floats your boat).

And i think the final stanza is about how the female/male waits on for the second character not knowing whether they feel the same.

Overall, great poem, cudos to the author.

8/10
