Love Casts Its Dark Side
February 12th, 2006[ A poetic study on unrequited love... ]
love
casts
its
dark
side
unto
the
forlorn
and
abandoned
once
innocent
and true
now
desolate
and
forgotten
and
falling
down
down
far
below
the surface
of a crystal blue lake…
landing in a remote desert
sinking into the sand
and drowning in a sea of sorrow
bleeding from a wound that won’t heal
lost in hopeless confusion
like sailing on a dark ocean beneath a stormy sky
or peering through a window into a dark room
or looking out of a window into the cold night
or wondering, just wondering
just wondering and never knowing
forever lost…
as the bright sunny afternoon gives way
to the approaching night…
its shadows cast upon the leaves and grass
that become bitter cold and moist with frozen dew drops…
once
innocent
and true
now
desolate
and forgotten
as
love
casts
its
dark
side
unto
the
forlorn
and
abandoned

Dear Carlos,
This was just . . . I can’t find the right words. . .beautiful won’t do and neither am I speechless. It’s more like, as I’m reading your poem, I am scratching at a point on the ground. And slowly something emerges from that tiny, shadowy, unknown spot. Suddenly, it all gushes through, dark and lovely. Everything is painted in that quiet shadow. The silence of love that stays silent and unknowing, always just shadows and whispers . . . I really loved this poem of your.
Best regards,
Zaya
