I Didn't Realize

It felt great to have someone to wait for even when I wafted like a lonely cloud 

It filled me with soothing serenades and poetic lore

Harp those strings of love

One more time dear!

Before the last embers of daylight die

And stars deck up to festoon the sky

Escort my ardent heart 

Into the cosiness of the unshared alcove 

My love!

Perhaps I loved you too much

And for too long

Performed like a slow rhythmic old song 

True to every beat of the rhyme

Did not even realise it...

Tunes of impasse took a toll on core

And my imagination

Was reduced to tattered thoughts.
