The only romantic thing

By magpythief

Choosing you instead of life
Choosing me instead of breath

A loyal horse charged into dark
A loyal dog on death’s door barks

One without the other
The only romantic thing

Calling out in time of need
Reveals passion for nothing but feed
High horse rule has only one aim
To lull and relieve
Thus never bleed

Blind and numb, Forever won
Heads instead of tail
Freedom instead of toil

You at infinite distance
The only romantic thing
