After departure.
You were once my all,
My happiness, my love, my heart,
I knew this during our fall,
In the last tender moments of our depart
What I would give to hold you again,
To have another feel of those sweet gentle lips,
Your warmth that transcended through rain,
To touch your silky curly locks at their tips.
In your absence, the world has lost its shine,
The future holds no other description but bleak,
Now that I've lost all in the world that was mine
Cheerful songs fail to escape a bird's beak.
Cursed to never love, to see happiness in the world,
When you were taken away from me, I lost my world.

"First, my appologies for not bidding you welcome. New faces are always a positive by keeping the site fresh and the old hands on their toes (how's that for a mixed metaphor?) In a sonnet you are aiming for ten syllables…" -

"overall but the last two lines end on the same rhyme. How about something like this? Cursed to never love, to see happiness unfurled, When you were taken away from me, I lost my world." -
