Analysis of Love's Verdict
Parting of breaking hearts
desperately seeking anew
lost on distant horizons
only found by hardly few
Tears scattered in storms
eyes seared by the wind
tugging at strings of beads
missing of love's threads
Fatalism unchanged
In the empathy of souls
ever forgotten pieces
in a lover's essence of heart
Minds twisted in dreams
absent of never knowing
or finding a verdict
in what true love means
