Analysis of Lost



Breeze whispers, hinting soft,
Secrets float on wings aloft.

Meadow, vibrant, drenched in hues,
Whispers secrets, but unheard you lose.

Tree stretches, branches wide,
Shaded truths, yet lost they hide.

Raindrop dances, quenching earth's thirst,
But brings no solace for note, now dispersed.

Butterfly flits, a fleeting glance,
Carries hopes untold, missed chance.

Ocean's waves crash, a mighty roar,
Yet, the note lost, lost evermore.

Sunset's glow, colors serene,
Can't retrieve what's never seen.

So, amid nature's course unfurled,
Note eluded, lost in the world.

But remember, dear heart, destiny's dance,
Unwritten chapters still hold a chance.
