Sorrow

steamy love affair ends fate has spun its web they are caught in a net of dying dreams No more walks together in the park no more movies on Saturday night sorrow becomes the fulcrum of their lives Stars still come out at night After the blazing sun has faded into shadow A love affair ends ashes float in icy pools waiting to be stirred by the north wind

Breakups leave us with frozen hearts, Matthew. You think back on the good times shared and the sorrow grips you. Very well conveyed message and I like the "meandering" appearance of the layout. Sorrow also leaves us with no direction to turn, no hope, only painful memories. Love, Carolyn
