A Love Like His | Rebecca Kolodziej

A love like his is trixie

Yet he somehow manages

To bewitch me

Under his gaze I crumble

Words fail me and I fumble

Wanting desperately to walk away

But the magnetic storm he conjures

Is just too strong to break

 

A love like his is frolicsome

Mischievous and stone cold

He whispers words of Impish

Delights

Weaving webs of heart string lights

One look at him and I fold

 

And i know, that even when

he whispers those three words

He puts the sirens of the sea to shame

Why do I keep falling for his trixie game?

 

My sanity is fleeting

When he looks at me through

Eyes of blue tinted glass

 

Majestic deceiver

mysterious shadow

He haunts every cell of this fragile mind

And I don’t mind I seem to find

Yet why? I cannot say

 

It's hard to not succumb to a love

Like his when you’re betwixt by

A golden crowned prince

You think you can fix them

Stitch them and wish them -

To shine -

But you know it's only delusion

When you are this love blind

 

A love like his is trixie

Yet he somehow manages

To bewitch me

Im forever under his spell

And I know in bittersweet torment-

That this could be either heaven or hell

More about The Poem...

 

This captivating and lyrical poem explores the tumultuous experience of being ensnared in a complex and beguiling love. The speaker is irresistibly drawn to a charming yet deceitful lover, whose enigmatic presence elicits both enchantment and torment.

The poem begins by describing the lover's love as "trixie"—a blend of trickery and playfulness—highlighting the magnetic and irresistible nature of his charm. The speaker acknowledges their own vulnerability, crumbling under his gaze and fumbling for words, despite a desperate desire to walk away. This magnetic pull is likened to a powerful storm, too strong to break free from.

As the poem unfolds, the lover's mischievous and cold nature is revealed through whispered promises and impish delights. He weaves "webs of heart string lights," a metaphor for the intricate and deceptive nature of his affection. The speaker is aware of the lover's ability to bewitch and mesmerize, comparing his effect to the enchanting sirens of the sea.

The speaker grapples with their sanity, which is fleeting under the lover's gaze—described as "blue tinted glass." This "majestic deceiver" and "mysterious shadow" haunts the speaker's mind, creating a paradox where the speaker is simultaneously aware of the lover's deceit and irresistibly drawn to him.

The poem reflects on the futile hope of fixing or changing the lover, recognizing it as a delusion born from being "love blind." Despite the bittersweet torment and the awareness that this love could lead to either "heaven or hell," the speaker remains under the lover's spell, captivated by his golden crown and the allure of his enigmatic presence.

Through its evocative imagery and emotional depth, the poem captures the essence of a love that is both enchanting and destructive, exploring themes of vulnerability, obsession, and the intoxicating nature of a deceitful yet irresistible lover.
