Of love Lost
Short and bitter/sweet
I sought you where the sun had set, you were not there
I sought you where the moon rose our love to share
I sought you where galaxies spun
But you, my love, had gone
I looked for you where flowers grew
Finding nothing but the silvered dew
I found in the graveyard your name upon a stone
I wept in bitter silence alone, alas alone

Thank you Otreasaigh. Most of my stuff is humorous, though, so this is a departure for me.
