Death came for you on a midsummer's eve, and there was nothing I could do but grieve. As a dying sun sets. The air smelled of roses starting to bud, and trickling tears soon morphed into a flood. As lonely as it gets. The fabric of life began to unweave; your death was hard to accept or believe. Chills morphed into the sweats. I haven't come to grips with the pain I feel, for I want to believe this isn't real. There are no safety nets. Slipping into dreams you secretly haunt, you are still the only lover I want. My heart has no regrets. Without you, a scarlet sunset seems gaunt, a color nature continues to flaunt. 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!
