A Place of Forever

She dwells in a place of forever,
a distant light still beckoning,
a beacon chasing the darkness
of a dreamer's futile dreams.

A void gapes in love's wounded flesh.
It is a yawning chasm, unfathomable
in its bitter extremity.

Such love should not be denied,
left unrequited, bereft, wanting.
Such love breathes in her essence,
absorbs her reality, views the angles
from which her beauty is revealed.
Such love is all encompassing,
her soft voice, sweet touch of bliss,
a fragile note of harmony.

What life now, this unending sameness?
Brief tick of despair before ending,
diffused in time's wanton progress,
a vapor soon fading from view.

I love the answer to your last question...

"Brief tick of despair before ending,
diffused in time's wanton progress,
a vapor soon fading from view."

...rich AND deep
