River of Love

The river flows in a one way ticket
Drew memory of the dreaming man
Followed water level like a picket
In the rainy season, the water spans

Water becomes shallow in summer
He recollects his long loving days
Spent in the sweet and sour clutters
Finally, like the river she went away

He believed relationship was durable
The family bind lacked the continuity
The seasonal water to be comparable

River and love passed by definitely
His heart fulfilled by self-compassion
Living will never be full of perfection

A lot of feeling and emotions in your lovely poem. You have a very individual free style, sometimes rhyme and sometimes not. In all forms of writing it is poetry that reveals the heart and lays bare the soul. Thanks.
