A Dragonfly
   of windless wings,
an emptiness
   which lost love brings ...

If meant to fly
   such love will soar
and live for years,
   lost nevermore.

But time does tell
   and takes its toll
when air goes stale
   and starves the soul.

With fierceness
   of what hearts know,
reluctantly,
   we face, let go ...

Dragonfly
   by legends born,
search forever
   for love that's sworn.

Fear is a blindness, heart is the cure.   -   C. Belville 02

ctowen,
very descriptive poem, I like it.

Yes!
We soar so high don't we?
Seems as if nothing can disturb such a high.
Then suddenly no more lift.
As in a vacuum we plunge straight down to the depths of despair.

That's why we have to be careful for whom we decide to fly that way.

Enjoyed the imagery!
God bless.
Thanks for sharing!
