LOVE & OLD AGE

By Leopardess?

How I wish I could see myself from your point of view;
I made up the verdict of the whole case in my head;
Finding the right balance was like finding a needle in a haystack;
I was sucked dry and too stuck to leave.

Contented with the eloquence of my view;
I was shocked with what I was fed;
By passersby who wanted me stuck;
And didn’t care to ask if I preferred to die or live.

The pain of emptiness is real
When you left I was desolate
I kept thinking we will meet
Rona times postponed our chances to elope

We could not create a lift
Our moods were down so low
The caresses disappeared in a drift
Our smiles hid the grief down below

Funny you came and went
Unrequited love
Disenfranchised, my heart is bent
As your gentle soul flies above as a dove
