Lost love

Wistful winds of yesteryear
My love flies with you

Magnificent
Beyond beauty
Your image remains
Forever the same
Eternal In youth
Timeless in temptations

You were my angel
So splendorous to the touch
You took me
Into lands
Unknown to melancholy
A journey of ecstasy
Timeless to time
Going here soaring there
Like a sail in an ocean of infinite wonder

That face
The Yellow Brick Road
To what should have been

She was my shadow
Swallowed whole by my mind
I sought her in search
Of a perfection
That never came

My yearnings
For togetherness
Touched my passions

Her kiss
My consciousness
Her smell my soul

How lost the years seem
Vapid moments of tenderness
Denied

Why does the wind blow wild

Mountains of inspiration
Peak with destiny
For life's rebirth

But fears
Ignite forgetfulness
And time is now

The youth of yesteryear
So distant a universe
Corroded by age

Love
Shredded to remnants
Dreams
Blown in a wind
Of time and consequence

Better forgotten
