Found and Lost

I the onlooker

Looks on the tender sweetness

Of the bond between

Man and woman

Woman and man

Man to man and

Woman to woman

 

A blissful repose

Is what a yearn for

When the scent of colorful daisies

Or the chime of tiny bells

Becomes only an apparition;

An idea at the back of my mind

 

In front of that one person

My mind would be blank,

If not of the thought of my love

The one's whose light does not shine through my darkness

But of the light that casts a further spark into whats left of my smoldering fervor

 

I the onlooker

looks on tender sadness

Caused by love not being able to find me,

Of what was found once but what was lost

 

Oh a bitter-sweet sensation this epiphany

Love cannot find me now

However I the onlooker;

Still looks on
