Solitude

Do you remember that vine?
That witnessed our pristine love.
I wish you were only mine,
Cooing peace like a dove.

Blue tits singing with mirth
Remind me of my old love.
Sweet memories I unearth,
Cooing peace like a dove.

This broken heart of despair
Bleeds with my wounded love.
I seek solace in my lair,
Cooing peace like a dove.

My heart bespeaks loneliness
Of a pure, guileless love.
I crave for joy, happiness;
Cooing peace like a dove.

I never can forget you.
How could you dump my love?
This lone heart is born anew,
Cooing peace like a dove.
