Crushed Love

Expectations brimming.
Nostalgia of my hurt.
Dismantling my mind.

My love was sincere.
I did not know to loll.
Just simple minded me.

The earth my solitude fends. 
Sky my dreams suspend.
Breeze consoles my soul.
 
Gently catching my fall.
Tears forget to weep.
Heart's memory asleep.

My heart continues to beat. 
An involuntary feat.

I shall survive my life’s revelry. 
Its just a matter of wild debauchery. 
Orgy of love a dance with lust.

Tryst with life reasoning, I cannot control.
If by living, I can even touch one soul. 
Then, there may not be anything more.
I would have achieved, something that I adore.

A tragedy of my life, a litany of my soul.
Like sun burnt leaves crushed under my feet.
