Love Poem: Rapture

Rapture

I spent years wondering 
If romance is a liar
A lure into fiction
Of sweet satire.

I thought it was wise
To detest my desire
I pictured frozen blood
In place of glowing fire. 

The first time I saw 
Love in your eyes
I witnessed art, 
A transcending rise. 

Your lucent words like 
A meteor in motion capture
It was the first time 
I felt cosmic rapture. 

With you by my side
I am in euphoric capture
And since, I believe
Romance is rapture.
