Young lovers touch under an azure sky.
They close their eyes to sleep.
Awaken to reflections in the lucid stream.
—They see a love so deep.
Serendipity led them on a
gravel path,
To a paradise, they’d never
seen before.
Life ultimately led them on separate
paths.
—They had much more to explore.

This is incredibly beautiful and puts me in the mind of the saying “it’s better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all”.. also I really like the image of the azure sky here as a backdrop! ❤️

That's the beauty of young love, Vicky! One is given the privilege and the luxury of making a better choice when not just blindly plunge into the first relationship!

True, thanks, Hank.
DeleteAh... youth and its short-lived, intense passions.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Margaret.
DeleteYou have described perfectly a love gone stale. It could have also turned into a lifelong deep friendship that we also call love. Like your picture, love should stay together at the 'Y'.
ReplyDelete..
Thank you, Jim.
DeleteThat bliss of coming together... so wonderful
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteWhat I read here is not so much something ending as other things naturally coming in sequence. It makes it more natural than sad, like it was all just meant to be.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Shay.
