Love Does Not Die

Life - a mere whisper in eternity Bitter taste tonight of melancholy Dew on rose petals leaving me thirsty For nostalgic notes of music folly And tender dreams under Christmas holly When feelings run as deep - love does not die ‘Tis no more than a momentary goodbye As love for you flutters in afterlife On beautiful wings of a butterfly In the mystical garden of your life AP: 3rd place 2022 Submitted on May 16, 2018 for contest DEATH: LOVE DOES NOT DIE sponsored by BROKEN WINGS - RANKED 6TH
