Lost Love

My life is unveiled in a poem ---
a poem of dark, sadness and pain
This poem breathes and breathes 
with darkest experience; no gain

Thou it rhymes in perfection, yet
lasting heart aches and despairs it only brings
to chain innocent soul for years
in peripheral solitude, I remember

the first morn of April 
when I met you
like a naked lady on a shoreline rocks
braving the passing wind; you glow

with your pink smile 
you’ve shown 
me the morning sunshine, but as it fades away
your beauty loses its integrity
