True Love Lost-by Devi Nina Bingham

When you think back on what could have been

when you are alone, your fortunes in review

when the years have delivered their half-hearted wins

for your guarded heart that safely withdrew


Then will you admit when no soul can hear

Then will you wail to know all that was tossed

Then will the bell toll in destiny's ear

for your one chance at true love was lost.


Despite divine decree you ignored the signs

month after month and year after year

until you became the tempest-tossed

and your true love died one thousand times.


No going back, nothing as severe

No time left for the star-crossed.
