A Sad Startling Beauty

--The feeling of after hearing an ancient love story 


Searching love but being desolate

Joy, sadness and pain

A Startling beauty

Unlucky destiny 

For whom sorrow and empty?

Empty lament

A romantic lonely dream.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
