[hometext] => a poem about a lost love
[bodytext] => I came back to the crossroads Where we left our emotions, But didn’t see the imprints of your naked feet, On the soft sands. I crossed the river that hid you away from me, But met only the sweet fragrance of your absence. I kissed those faultless lips that adorn your face, But ‘twas only in the carelessness of my dreams. I sang you a love note; A love note draped in the colours of our love, But it drifted off with the wandering, westerly winds. I drew an outline of you, With the patterns of the stars in the nightsky, But day came too soon, fading you far from me. I adored the memories of you and me Under the falling rain, But time revealed the frailties of my mind. Fate took you from me a lifetime go, But I’ve laboured to let life live. I indulged with another like you, But the feel of her waistbeads Were nothing like yours. I saw your face in the colours of the rising sun, But it did disappear behind the hills. The nightmare!! I saw today in the eyes of yesterday’s bliss, But it was a fiery illusion, That paled under the veil of reality. Standing at the crossroads where we left our emotions, I chose a path, But it was the path that led me away from you. 22nd February, 2008 [comments] => 1 [counter] => 192 [topic] => 22 [informant] => quasiadu [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LostLove )
