My own heart affected

by Bonnie Rose   Jun 8, 2007


In your fairness, your unchanging smile,
though i know not, what it may be for,
it is fastened to my own heart affected,
with such an ache, though a beautiful one.

it is fair to assume yet,
that smile belongs to a doubtful thing
and is mine, no more.

perhaps it is the saddest smile
my heart and my eyes have ever seen.

    This was rather delightful to read. You grasped your diction in this piece quite well. I also loved the ambiance of seeming prehistoric times applied on this piece. It was simply lovely. Thank you for sharing!
