Lost Love Poem by Bill Kamen

A virtuous love she once had,
Lost, like footprints in a changing tide,
on an avenue of conflicting emotions,
reflecting the vulnerability of her heart.


Time slowed, like broken hands on a clock,
and could not ease her pain, and pacify her mind and heart.
Feelings of hurt and betrayal confronted
her tamed nature of reality.

When she is lonely and full of despair,
and in the depths of hopelessness, she looks to her soul,
and dreams of the love her heart once knew,
and seeks solace in a lost love song.
