The forlorn lover

 

When lightning fell and fire kissed the sky,

My heart, a bloom, was left to die.


In doubt’s soft shade, my trust grew cold,

The truth, though near, remained untold.


Those words of grace — whose voice were they?

If not from you, then drifted, did they?


You were my song, my sacred tune,

I lived in hope... but hope died soon.


Your glance once lit my youth like flame,

You turned away — I burned in shame.


No love, you say — then why the pain?

Why tears in storms that bring no rain?


So if I must be scorched and torn,

Take this heart first— it's tired, it's worn.


And with the dust of dreams you broke,

Let ashes rise with every smoke.
