Love lost

Through the hazy layers of memories past….

I search for the lines of your face

The spell of love the adolescent mind had cast…

I close my eyes and try to trace

The hands you had held out to me in confidence…

the lips that had touched and probed my soul

i know now for you it was all pretense

I lost my innocence and i lost my whole….

The day i fell in love with you i had dreamt a fantasy.

Of making love till dawn

falling asleep in your arms in ecstasy.

Now your face your voice your touch is gone.

But still i live and love and am happy……….but sometimes..

Through the hazy layers of memories past….

I search for the lines of your face
