Love In Dismay

       Tingling passion arose as you came close.
         Romance rolled to tell ‘we would not stay apart.’
         Unfolding your wish you dared to propose.
         Emotion was entwined from you to my heart.

         Territory of love was built in vain.
         Coward in guise of lover came and relation coiled.
         Love terminated in piercing pain.
         Engaged once I was devoted, but destiny spoiled.
         
         Love not reciprocated always soft and shy                                                                                                                     
           being devoid of demand and passion	
            hidden sad sullen in solitary soul.
           It is gaze of sunflower on 
         silent adoration to blazing dazzling Sun.                                                                                                                        
           It is nectar secretion of oyster 
            to form pearl of pain                                                                                                                      
            Beautiful coral garden under ocean
             beyond human view.                                                                                         
            No expectation to be loved 
            but to grow in the abyss of dismal.
                                                                                                                              
         Still a feeble faint hope for far future 
         fascinating a miracle
        marveling to achieve
         sudden response ending in unison.
