Ava A. Carlton Poet Terza Rima

Crimson Locke of Tears

Crimson Locke of Tears

These tears my dear darling are dripping like shattered crystals
Crystals that could be slowly pouring into a glass of champagne,
Why have you left and caused these tears to flow on endlessly?

Didn't you know that you've been the one true love even though?
We danced all the time neath our rose colored crimson of fine wine
A love like ours, I thought we'd live through all the falling, falling rain.

For we lived so close to the Crimson Locke rapids of flowing time
These tears of mine dear are dripping like shards of shattered crystals,
Crystals that could be slowly pouring into a fine glass of champagne.
