Compelled

It, was in the wanton passion, fire was ignited !
It was there, where fierce a love was imparted
In the heat, a duel drew in all eyes of suspicion.
The will was given over, to an arena, of vision !

Where pain and pleasure coincide with the fate.
Defeated soul contorted by the scheme of date
Illustrious vanquished bringing life into a focus
Never matched by the spirit, torn apart by fuss.

Stark reality needing art in forms beyond belief.
Treasure summed by learning from higher grief.
A future decides who is the ultimate prize to be
Transformed by a fresh definition of the victory !
