Marooned by Xtargold(op): 6:46am On Jul 06, 2016
And there she was,like a dove;humble and meek
With the purest of hearts
but,better for me is a beauty in sight,
cos I want a model for a child.


Here comes another;bold and fearless
yet calm in spirit,undoubtedly loving,
like my mother;great are her sacrifices
she sought for nothing but a friend in me,
but,that love I never returned
cos,that is my greatest fear.

In a far away land;
where the stones glitter and leaves greener
she came,fair as the moon,
her hair like a golden scarlet;
she led me on in euphoria,
but,i couldn't take her to mama
cos,she loves him with same snow
skin as hers,not my skin of coal.


Now,i'm back from my sojourn;
craving for a hug and a warm kiss
but,I will have to wait forever,
my first love is tied to another
and she whose love I never returned
has gone on her way,across several
seas and mountains,far beyond my
reach.


Here I am wandering alone;
in the desert of regrets;total darkness,
closing up on me
my eggs I put not in one basket
but I lost them all.
And I know,never again will I be
loved so true.
