Fourth Dimension

Anacreontic Verse

Forgotten
love has faded
forever now lost
in the lips of ice
What once was
is no more
Her body revolts
she heaves heavily
Get thee away 
Deliver me Lord
back to sanity
Let her feel my eyes
let her see my needs
a soft bed for two
now scorned by my touch 
Let me give my might 
pray show me the way
I will not lose her
I cannot go on
My life is over

Love scorned is painful and hard to bear! But time heals...love does not grow on one stem only...a new one might already be awaiting to bloom:) Congrats on a much deserved win, Judy! ~ Regards // paul

Interesting write, Judy. I feel the meaning is deeper than the words on the page , but I'm not quite grasping it.

She doesn't want his love.....likely you don't grasp it because that could never happen to you! Cheers!

It matters not, Lin and Tim - we don't get to choose. Plus, in life, broken hearts may well heal given enough time, but one doesn't 'heal' after death! Sorry, Judy - it is your page I am being social on! Well, that's because I wanted you to know that I enjoyed your write and then they (down there) distracted me. It is their fault! Very good ...

True CayCay....I would choose life over anything and, as you can tell, never have experienced death. Sorry for being a distraction : )...btw....new love helps heal a broken heart

Sometimes a broken heart is more painful then death...or seems so. Tim thinks so. Nice one, Judy.. LA lady...me, too.
