A savory loss
Like a misplaced cross
Feeling without
Yearning to shout
Failure to hear
Small but dear
A heavenly shaped
Ownership raped
Helplessly alone
Stripped of throne
Search and seek
Outcome bleak
Feeling robbed
Heart has sobbed
Far from recovered
Closure undiscovered
Possession lost
When two hearts crossed
One crossed river
Resolve at a quiver
The other yearns
Gets what it earns
Yet now both still
Recall the old thrill
The love once had
Nights spent sad
Comfortable tears
To wash away fears
Awkward perfection
Of taboo complexion
A story book start
Which plot tore apart
As two were one
Their tale is done
Explanation missing
As is the kissing
Pages torn from book
Time; the guilty crook
Yet culprit remains
The one who contains
Memory souvenirs
Graying with years
Time then restarts
Forgotten are the hearts
Lives go on
Dusk breeds dawn
Yet, at the very back
Of a shelf or rack
Is a unison force
An unfinished course
An item misplaced
All but memory erased
Hiding under a bed
Maroon in sea of red
A treasure long gone
A photographed dawn
Induced a cry
Since, eyes gone dry
Absence still felt
Feelings don’t melt
Snow that winter did
Underneath reality hid
Sun brought cold
Took what winter sold
Which now is lost
An heirloom tossed
A pendant once favored
A loss now savored
Just a misplaced cross
Just a bittersweet loss
