I’ve been passing time <br />Counting tears as they hit the sand <br />There are just too many <br />To try and catch with my hand <br />The tide rushes in <br />And carries them away <br />I want to leave <br />But my heart says to stay <br />The sun sinks into the ocean <br />The waves causing a commotion <br />I don’t think I can feel another emotion <br />And visions of you are just a silly notion <br />How many times did we walk this strand <br />Two lovers in the moonlight, hand in hand <br />Now, there are only one set of foot prints <br />It’s not like I need any more subtle hints <br />You have disappeared into the mist <br />And I’m alone again never to be kissed <br />The moon is pushed up over the brazen hills <br />Leaving me with the spoils and the spills <br />The scarlet sky quickly fades <br />And silent stars glisten on the waves <br />Creating a moment so romantic <br />Feelings can become gigantic <br />But all that will be wasted <br />True love never again to be tasted <br />The lustrous moon tempts desire <br />But like the moth it avoids the fire <br />Running from the chasing sun <br />The ingredients of a romance done<br /><br />Alfred Ramos<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/love-lost-18/
