Lost Love

Lost Love
It was amazing when we first laid eyes on each other, both tumbling and on fire. I found myself in rainfalls and blue skies drowning in his gaze, a flame of desire. Couldn't shake the shallow feel that clawed my soul, wrapping around me like a vise when I felt the dark dread that completed my whole. Every fiber told me to say goodbye. He wasn't my obligation to permit this insatiable attraction to gain; their furtive look was not denying it. It became difficult to bare the pain. Lost love buried inside now free from strife, quite, humble, nonchalant, ascetic life. 1-20-2018
