๐—ชandering across myriad paths my strained soul still seeks thee,
๐—œambs, trochees, anapests,dactylsโ€ฆI pen as my beating heart whispers thy name,
๐—งeetering betwixt the past and present,
๐—›allucinating in a realm that’s harbored in my mind,
๐—˜cstatically I dance with thy image that looms,
๐—ฅedolent memories carry me far across…
๐—˜ntranced, I dwell in the surreal sanctuary,
๐——arling! Those rosy moments with thee will ne’er vanish.

๐—ฅaining tears still sing songs of our love,
๐—ขne more chance is all I ask,
๐—ฆadly, the silent sepulcher with roses withered,
๐—˜manates thy muted dirges longing for me.
