It Can'T Be

So it goes, this lover’s fate
Now left alone to contemplate
How begot this moment, dark
No longer to rekindle spark

Where once a love he surely knew
Days of sunshine come to view
Happy times and smiles wide
But darkness came, now light’s inside

So, left to ponder this for now
He sits and wonders, oh, just how
He lost his one, his true soul mate
To be alone, tormenting fate

Such a sad piece yet wonderfully written. It nearly brings tears to my eyes to think of lost love. You are so gifted. Keep writing and I'll keep reading. Smiles from Lena "Lolita"
