Amoris Anonymous

No longer does the subtle breeze
Bring relief on searing days
Hidden below the willow trees
Wherever  love-thick  fades
And leaves bleed
Or with the shadows on the moon’s farside
Along the dark lagoons
Of forever abandons collide 
And where no one notices extremes 
Swarms of wasp stings
Sluggish are the foothills furthermore
No way into the clouds
Forgotten by them
Love’s tragedy victims
Are hers to spare
The bond of love,  
Amoris giver,  no longer is seen there
Numb are the empty wells
Tears no longer fall
Dry are the fields 
Where she lays her lowered head
Nor do the flames of affection feel
Not even the weeds sway across the fleshy
Fruits that fall for her, 
She is anonymous 
After all

Duke Beaufort April 8, 2026 at 9:48 AM Anaya, you've captured the intensity of the sadness associated with love. As wonderful as we all think it is, there's times where we don't succeed or we have made some kind of a mess. These times are tough to think about, but you ease us into it. I think it's important to reflect on all this to try to minimize the downside while we can. Hope you are well and sending smiles since only confronting these things truly enables an expanse of joy. You are really good!!! I Am Anaya April 8, 2026 at 10:26 AM It really is sensible to write about it, send it out into the universe, reflect, write it down take a bic to it, burn it, (physical relief) end its control! depression is sadness, but there is more...there is loss in interest or pleasure in activities, nobody has time for that, especially the youthful. Duke, I forgot to thank you for the compliment you made, that you think i'm a good teacher, how kind of you. Tyvm!

Victor Buhagiar April 8, 2026 at 1:56 AM Think of me as a Maltese with limited diction. How I dmired your poem on love. A true delicacy. And what a picture! Never saw such redness before. A masterpiece. I Am Anaya April 8, 2026 at 10:33 AM Victor your the best story-teller, romancer, the works! Never say that about yourself dearest poet. Its veins bleed onto its leaves and down below onto depressed weeds is what I see~ Tyvm you are very kind

I Am Anaya April 7, 2026 at 4:14 PM "Amoris" is a Latin word meaning "of love" or "love's," often used to indicate possession or association with love. Definition and Usage In Latin, "amoris" is the genitive singular form of "amor," which translates to "love" in English. The genitive case typically expresses possession, so "amoris" can be understood as "of love" or "belonging to love" in various contexts. For example, in Latin phrases like vinculum amoris, it means "the bond of love".
