The Unrequited Love
#TheUnrequitedLove¶¶¶

Your affection cools me calm
soothing my compassion moving idly
in loss, deeply sinking to the shore of feelings,
with-it target, being seduced by the undertow of its lust, tied neatly!

Infused with the sparkling-look
of her eyes, to the fall of every man she holds, only distasteful odour
keeps advising my irritable desire!

Could I quit, why I'm deeper in peek of hope alive?
My thoughts leaving my fate in bewildered flows
Deeper I sink, stiff my comfort evolves,
surplus and further I fear failure!

I'm entangled coldly in the portion of the sea, fearing no deeper underside anymore, losing sight of the actual shore!
I'm guarded by her heartless prey!
Hopeless I fear to proceed, nodding to stop the labour of my milestone!

Noticing shortly my quitting attitude,
attracting me quickly with the opening of her entrance to her beautiful island, that I thirst and labour for!
