Love is for always some say
It is not fleeting, evanescent
neither
Strengthens in today, also in
tomorrow, closer as well as thither
But feelings too have shelf life, I
pray.
Some crushes wither, some tremble,
some die
Who had a heart that sought a lone
one
That God of Yellow when couldn’t
commit to one
Flowers again bloom, as feelings wink
and moments fly.
Then what of the ancient flame
That once had fire enough to parch?
Was it weak so much, now your heart
is impelled to march?
Nay, cold fire now, how can it stay
the same!
As for they, they are but memories
mere…
Old yellowed lovers, faded, receded, not
near…..
[My first sonnet written using the
Shakespearean sonnet form]
