The Shores of Unrequited Love

Crimson-legion clouds
tipped in gentle gold,
(by a brush of saffron-sunrise)
march the fine cerulean sky
above murmuring mountains,
lonely and timeless…
beyond a slice of silent sea
shimmering in the morning mist,
where forlorn and tattered hearts
break upon the shores
   of unrequited love!

lovely poet
and it's your colors that seem to be
catching on the edges of my imagination
lately

Wake me when the dream is over.

Your imagery is perfect.

Secondhanddreampoet,

Unrequited love should be avoided by everyone.

Nice writing.
