A Dying Flame

It's been so long since My Flame of LOVE has been extinguished
Yet my Heart screams for it new a LOVE that was so distinguished
People who knew of this LOVE: said a true LOVE is Everlasting
On that dark desolate day my LOVE went away; my heart starting Fasting
I thought I would never LOVE again, but then a Family of POETS Entered
With all the LOVELY POETIC Masterpieces : The POET'S with their LOVE Centered
The History of Poetic LOVE concieved in every form, every shape, every name
From all over the world : the joy and sadness, the LOVE Tributes of LOVES' flame
No matter what country : no matter what race, the song of LOVE is Always the SAME

I'm sorry you lost your love. On the other had I'm glad you found peace with the family of Poet's. I find it peaceful when when I pour my feelings into my own poems.
