True Tragedy Whenever a Great Romance Dies

True Tragedy Whenever A Great Romance Dies

She was my beautiful flower, her soft colors enthralling me
Breathtakingly sweet her most tender kisses and warming hugs
I had found my angel, she with such dark tanned sexy legs
That night we made our maddingly deep love, all of her I see.

And she was mine and I was her lover so very true.
We had found our paradise and babe it was me and you!

I saw her with no clothes, what a heavenly sight to see
She slowly undressed me, and was laughing with such glee!

She was my angel, her long black hair so truly divine
We lay upon the beach-sand, our hearts melding together
All we could do was so deeply kiss and touch each other
I was her dearest lover she an angel that was mine!

For four fantastic months nothing could tear we two apart.
She was my sweetest girl and I gave her my loving heart!

That August, her heart was broken when her mother died.
She my dear lover, shut herself in, for weeks she cried.

Then a hurt came , she sent me a notice she was leaving
Her family wanted her home and California was far away
I tried my best to keep my sweetheart but to no avail
From then on it was my broke heart and poor soul a 'grieving

As days turned to weeks farther away we did both drift.
Then my job changed I went on six straight long nightshifts.

As Fate had sadly decreed, our love was just not to be.
Thus we parted, never again did I her sweet face see.

Christina Bowring Date: 9/11/2023 2:28:00 PM Such a sad, beautiful poem my friend. Beautifully written and expressed as always. Oh- the agony and pain of lost love! You convey it so, so well with your magical pen. The last two lines are so poignant Robert. Another gem from you and I am still astounded at the speed you can write with such high quality writing when reading your latest poems. I am in awe of that my friend. Take care. Login to Reply

Panagiota Romios Date: 9/11/2023 6:43:00 AM I have experienced the loss of great loves in my. life. And Robert, they were all for the best. We all met others and led satisfying lives)) I relate to your poem, quite well Each loss, only made me stronger. I found that no, I did not need a partner in my life, For me, I wanted freedom from just commitment to one man. I do better on my own! Wordsworth’s poem about Splendor in the Grass is applicable here, “ we will grieve not, but find strength in what lays behind” Panagiota xx Login to Reply Robert Lindley Date: 9/11/2023 7:43:00 AM Thank you, my good friend. Your words are as right as rain on a desert day. We are stronger after living through such dark and tragic events. God bless you...
