The Lonely Spirit

Midst sweet perfume            of youthful bloom,                     the lonely spirit wars and often cries           and sometimes dies                     in quest of her amour.

Hello Terry O'Leary, somtimes love is one sided and the other person gets hurt. When the other person does not love them back. Have a nice evening my friend.

oh I really like this one. It reminds me of a challenge we had here using a certain pattern of verse. Or was it something you just came up with?

Yes, the damage that is done in the quest for love can feel lethal to the ego. A big ouch!!
