A Love Too Soon

Looking back, as too often is the case Consumed by hazel, that bears the soul Listening to a truth, reflected in tragedies Holding candles, to lives passed Signs taken too lightly, the memory survives. A smile unrestrained, freeing a captive heart Lines that speak, boundaries flattened To capture an image, would do little justice A portrait of perfection, could not exist Disturbances disallowed, if only seriousness was not so. Silence never born, a stream of words became a river Attraction blooms, where mental stems meet Entranced would be apt, everything else, meaningless Stimulation can not be denied, an estacy of sorts Drowning in depth, acknowledged too late. Skin touches, prints act a spark Grasping a bit tighter, accustomed to departure Motions guided by nature, eternity could be real A part has been taken, a residence built within To stay was too much, away, the walk was made. Home in a hug, a peck enough to know The gate opens, beauty shows in every step Alive has the world become, joy paints with colour Thoughts wander, always around the same point A love too soon, the pieces left behind.
