I sought for love



I sought for love
I sought for love as i sigh out my wounded soul.
Thou it summons the remembrance of things past.
I sought for love as i sat side by side with the darling buds of May.
Agazing the moon as it brightens the sky of my darkest nights.
And with cursed sight, i retrieve what's not worth thy heart.
When to the fortune of sweet heavenly felicitousness
For precious instant of faithful love is worth thy hunt.
I sought for love as myself woes through the grief of yesteryear.
Do i not hunt this precious dear i necessitate  all right.
For i overlook along with my melanin hand above my brows.
I sought for love, thou it never endure as i retrieve perchance.

About this poem

It's about looking for someone to love as you have been at grief of yesteryear. But as luck wouldn't have you, everyone you retrieve is not worth your heart.
