Missing, the Magic

missing, the magic
  stars shrink
the moon cowers
  all that's sweet turns sour

heartfelt sighs
  comfort food
steam baths
  no good, no good...

O, before ye despair
  love will repair
nature's caprice, no one spares
  ~ angels in heaven yet care

Thanks, Caren. On 2nd reading, I see that this is a bit 'lovey-dovey.' ~ Blood and Guts Wolf

Hello Gershon ... this covid pandemic is sending people into a spiral of lost magic through the loss of freedom from fear - thanks again Gershon - Lindsay

Is it plausible that I sense  depression as a result of a love that didn't feel the same way? The only on who can answer you prayer is God...Excellent write, Something to ponder about!.... Blessings ~ Debra
