Loss of Love

Innocent love just left me
Reason took over
The silver lining I was waiting for
Passed me over
Life is now a whole new picture
With darker shades of red
An emptier landscape
A lonelier path I tread
The morrow shows me a dream
Yesterday beckons in its darkness
Today it seems never happened
All I have is an emptiness
Of wisdom and practicality
I miss my innocent love
The lack of Reason

Accidental Find

The wind
Strong and persuasive
Bending round corners
Or fleeing straight
Fluttering leaves and
Pushing birds
But not all the way
Vision on horizon
Craving in futility
To break all barriers
Good or Bad
Is all relative
Hypocritical effort of society
Turning man against mankind
Till there be a man
No more
