Death has released your soul on this Summer's Eve, and there is nothing that I can do but grieve. As a dying sun sets. A trickle of tears soon morphs into a flood, and my heart shrivels, as though drained of its blood. As painful as it gets. And the fabric of my life starts to unweave, confronting what I do not wish to believe. Chills turn into the sweats. I have not come to grips with the pain I feel, for I want to believe your death isn't real. Erecting safety nets. Slipping into dreams, that you frequently haunt, I can cuddle with you as long as I want. My heart has no regrets. Without you, a scarlet sunset seems so drab, a special moment that no longer feels fab. Brokenhearted sunsets.

Emile, this poem is expressed so beautifully in its plaintive sorrow. I have never written in this form, but it seems to be a bit challenging. Best wishes for the contest! : )

Wonderful Roundel Emile, such a pleasure to read, although sad, is kind of lyrical with repeating phrases, I enjoy that!
