Ode to a Fallen Star
Elizabeth Barrett Browning's Lost Light
A fallen star, your love once blazed so bright,
Guiding me through darkness, filling my world with light.
But the heavens shifted, fate's cruel hand intervened,
Leaving me lost in shadows, a love unseen.
My heart, a fragile blossom, withers in the cold,
Echoes of laughter, stories left untold.
Each empty promise, a thorn lodged deep within,
A constant reminder of the light that could have been.
Will dawn ever chase away this endless night?
Can my wounded heart learn to heal beneath its light?
Or will I forever wander, searching for your glow,
A fallen star's memory, haunting the depths below?
If you enjoyed it, please like and follow for more!
