Unrequited Love

A dove retires in humble death A song has lost its tune A candle dims to waning breath For sky that hides its moon An unrequited love so deep Has stained my heart to red Instead of joy inducing sleep Depression shares my bed Redirected now my heart Its only path is sorrow I’ve learned with doubt to live without No passions for tomorrow Unrequited love, kill mine Your eyes be blind forever For now until the end of time This pain shall I endeavor

Such a sad piece of writing brought to us in such a happy cadence. Hopefully this is just your imagination which I have found to be very vivid in past readings of your work, Nicely done Gayle.
