Love Without Hope

Love without hope, is a rose without fragrance
Random musical notes, that have no cadence
An extinguished candle, by an unpromising wind
Where the heart panhandles, to a disheartening whim

Susan Palli commented she could feel the emptiness. Quite an apt observation, and one with which I must agree. Hauntingly beautiful.
