Once There Was a Love

Once There Was A Love


    Once there was love between us!
     Two wobbling hearts came close,
       hankered for red rose.
        Seeds of love sown.
        Stem of passion grown up
        Root of emotion sank deep piercing heart.

     Once there was love between us!
         Bubbling blood flooded life in rapture.
          We captured ethereal ecstasy.
          Me not alert when knot of love slackened.
        But alarmed when you are gone
            leaving me alone.

   Accepted you as my life partner 
   Not at all prepared for this devastation
    Only one complain:
     How could you forget! You have won my heart!

     Once there was love between us!
     Now ocean of separation thrashing waves of dolor.
