Sad tears have replaced the
dreams of a woman that used to fill my heart with joy and happiness under a
moonlight zephyr.
Once lifted up into the fineries
of freedom, my spirit remains caged within the sorrows of a broken man lost in
the memory of her kisses.
How can the echo of my cries be
heard when time and distance have separated us through bitter anguish and
torrents of loneliness?
Fallen flowers floating upon the
waters of a dying river remind me of my own tears and the fate life has
bestowed upon me in exchange for sweet love.
Without her, despair has become
greater than my sadness, for what I feel in this very hour is a dagger piercing
my heart beneath this moonlight zephyr.
My longing for her is so intense
that I can actually visualize the translucent veil that hides her own sadness
as she calls out to me in the ebony darkness of the night.
So profound is the love we share that even when
separated, our tears create an unbreakable union between the divinities of two lovers
reminiscing of sweet kisses under a moonlight zephyr.

ReplyDeleteso romantic and haunting...
Dear Rocky Mountain woman,
DeleteA big thank you to you for being so kind to my humble work. I am grateful for the sweet words.
Hey Andy, always so romantic. I like it when you're inside love better than feeling like an outcast, though. I guess I just like it when you're so full of the joy of love like lungs full of fresh oxygen, rather than gasping for air as it is sucked out of the room with love departed. Filled-with-love seems to suit you!! Even still, the writing is beautiful. Be happy. Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteMy dearest Anita,
DeleteLove is never love unless it is tested by pain and sorrow. Thank you saying such sweet things to my humble heart. I hope when you return...I will have all the love waiting for you (smile).
Great Z post. The Zephyr, a light wind, is exactly the right word to capture the moon's impact on loss.
ReplyDeleteDear Lmkazmierczak,
DeleteThank you for those encouraging words. I hope you will return again my friend.
Andy! I can't believe this! No woan in her right mind could possibly refuse your wonderful way with words! I'm here for you, Andy, and I'm overwhelmed with your poetics!!!
ReplyDeleteMy dearest Judie,
DeleteYou have me smiling with your kindness and affection. The man that will walk away from you have not been born yet either (smile). Thank you for your heartfelt sweetness.

Dear Red,
DeleteWelcome and thank you for those lovely words. I am humbled by them. Its nice to meet you also.
Always so lovely to visit you Andy! This is the 2nd zephyr post I have seen today. They both made me think of the Denver Zephyr which was a passenger train when I was a kid! I loved traveling on the train and have many fond memories of my folks during those days. They are both gone so it makes my memories bittersweet.
