Loving You

Leena Auckel posted under PenMuse-37 Poetry on 2022-01-20



Did you say you love me? With gifts and bouquet laden, Oh when you proposed on one knee I felt like Eve in the Garden of Eden. I ascended into a state of kalopsia Incessantly pirouetting to sounds of bliss Immersed in chalices of ambrosia Ignored that I was being pushed down an abyss. A hundred lamps of hope I did burn As I slipped in ambedo Awaiting for your return Alas! Your love was as dead as the dodo. Tears of epiphany cleared the image The tales I believed in, made no sense The togetherness was but a mirage. The journey- a mere Nodus tollens.   Penmancy gets a small share of every purchase you make through these links, and every little helps us continue bringing you the reads you love!
