Passion has
A way
Of leading
My mind astray
Holding
All caution at bay
Compelling
Me to sway
In its persistence
Passion is
To know
That wherever
I may go
I’ll be carried by its flow
For the distance
Passion is
To feel
Dreams’ splendors
Revealed
While all else is
Unreal
Fading into
Darkened backgrounds
Of existence
Passion is
To see
In me all that I
Can be
Grasping full mastery
Over resistance
Passion is
A time
When philosophies
Of mine
Are willingly left behind
Liberated by
Temptation
Of one instant
Passion is
Being blind
To certainties that bind
My body
Soul
And mind
In their restrictions
Passion denies
Submission
Passion defies
Rationality
Reality
Possibility
Probability
Practicality
Propriety
And permission
Passion even defies
Definition.
