Once There Was a Love
My yesterday of long ago
when our love was warm and tender
filled with minutes,
that flowed on a river of passion
as our hearts explored the eternal depth,
of love's glorious light of romantic interludes
like ripen fruit we bathed in sunlight
where we saw the face of love,
through our eyes reflecting pool,
filled with emotion
before we were plucked by the passing of time,
left alone to rot away
as the seasons of our love went from Spring to Winter
to leave a lonely shadow looking at the parched ground,
of our love's dry pool of purpose
buried in the dark loneliness,
that cried so long ago
when once there was a love
