Lamenting the lost love

                                       

At the seaside,

Sequestered from civilization.

Like a hidden poet

Singing the songs of lament.

Waiting for the love,

That never returned.

A love that forgot to retreat

And retrace its steps.

A love falling prey to the temptations,

Of an evil unspecified secret.

A love rendered foreign.

It is a skilled poet whose pen can write thoughts such as these without ever having to experience the kind of loss you describe... sometimes those footprints are washed away by the tides and a love cannot find its way back... sometimes it leaves with the intent of never looking back at all... for whatever reasons, when it does go and not return, love can cripple us and leave us 'sequestered' from society and ourself... you are gifted, my friend, in imagination, observation and language... well-done, and great photo selection :)

The saddest of moods from a cherished pen. No frolic of fancy this time, but sorrow so painfully revealed.
Well written, dear Fatty.

[fattycbreezy52]

This is really touching. . You have tugged at my heartstrings with your words. . Let me tell you something. ."if you really love someone, let them go. . If they return they are yours forever. . If they don't, they were never yours". Our love will almost always never be reciprocated.. such is the cynical nature of life. .
A really good write :)

[fattycbreezy52]

you spoke my very notions of mind TLM.I am fortunate to be indifferent to this feeling called love,as of now.But your thoughts spoke my mind out.Thanks for an amazing review:)

notions of life*

[TheLostMind]

You are welcome :). Do you really think that we can somehow escape this feeling? . I don't think so?

[fattycbreezy52]

I am an escapist.That is why i can write even without falling in love:)
May be I am indifferent to it because you cannot really avoid falling in love:)

[TheLostMind]

"You cannot really avoid falling in love" .. that's the whole point. . How you take it. . Well that's another story madamji :)

[fattycbreezy52]

I like the way you vary your style. It shows a confidence and a willingness to learn. This is a lament and the sentiments in it are well expressed as she soulfully mourns the lost love. One small suggestion; you don't need the 'the' before civilization

[fattycbreezy52]

Yes,that's correct.I never checked before posting the final thing.And it's a grave mistake.I am surely correcting it.Thanks for pointing out my careless things and for an amazing and encouraging review:)

[John Alexander McFadyen]
