Lost

Spring is fleeting
yet it's essence sought to follow
blistered with searing betrayal
broken, missing and hollow
  Loves soulful summer breezes
as soft as angels hair
surrender to chilling winds of sorrow
stilled by distance, overcome with despair
  Warm hued dreams have faded
their now meaningless colors washed
turn pale shades of gray
hopelessly covered by frost
  A bond once regarded as eternal
sadly now is not
grasped by the cold hand of fate
love and happiness pay the highest cost
as one heart turned away
one heart broken
and a destiny is lost
