Ralph Sergi Poet Rhyme

Unrequited Love

Unrequited Love
She sits in a room and stares at a sight
A lonely impulse of a dimming light
Streaming across through a crack in the blind
For she knows he will not be here tonight
There was a time when the sun pulsed great light
And brillant was their love with colored hues
delighting favor with their favorite muse
An estactic joy with rapture unbound
Redundant as a vibrant echoed sound
Reverberating through a verdant glen
Their tumultuous love had died and then
She sits there in her lonely room and pouts
And ponders at the love thats gone and past
Their love was not as strong enough to last
