Shattered
Youth love broken;
bitter lament, low earthen floor.
Dreamed a dream, dominant image spoken,
painful idle no more.
Defile taste of the grave-mound as they lie crumbled.
Painful overwhelming grief they stand and stumbled.
Muddle, confused, down they tumbled;
precious memories of love and strength awoken.
