A Glorious Death

I died the other day
Love overwhelmed me
It left me in that place
Called “Unconditional”
It tore away at my soul
Broke down all my barriers
And assaulted my senses

I died the other day
Passion overcame me
It took me to that place
Lovers call “Heaven”
I became swamped
In sensations
Untold and unfound
It broke through my core
And brought a crescendo
Of delight
That exploded
In every corner of my mind


I died the other day
Desire conquered me
Clean through the heart
With the arrow
Marked “Fate”
It took away my breath
Boiled my very blood
And stole all my emotions
It left me in that place
Between reality and sublime
Called “Ecstasy”
It was a glorious death

I really enjoyed the words to this compelling poem. When we are all done with this pulchritudinous life, we can truly enjoy a "Glorious Death".

It was 'glorious' indeed, and I would use 'was revived' instead of 'died' ('I was revived the other day') cause this is what actually happened, and I am so happy for you! You did a great job with this poem by making us feel the richness of emotion that overwhelmed you, and for this reason I would call it a masterpiece. Thank you for sharing, dear poet! hug bouquet

I'm the last to come
but then its the coming
and read to my hearts content
I'm full and moving on......lols

Man this is breathtaking
heavier than a mountain of gold
i rather fight a dragon for this
than face another normal day

Bobby when love overcomes us, we do feel assaulted in implosion and explosive force like a dynamite that shreds us to pieces. A most compelling feeling that never goes away after that.
