A Slow Death
I watched love take wing, swooping in constant flight,
Seeking a heart upon which it could alight
I watched Love clamoring for recognition,
Begging to be claimed without inhibition
I watched Love floundering in desperation,
Wearied of its flight with no destination
I watched Love grow weaker with each passing day,
Pleading for sustenance to keep death at bay
I watched Love yield to its frail mortality,
Defeated by the truth of reality
I watched Love succumb, forlorn and rejected,
Now it's dead ..... never to be resurrected
