Within this Flower

Within this flower of a rose
A single drop of dew
Cascades its fount, and now are tears
Cried for the man she knew.

Dainty lashes - wet with tears
Emotion over flows
Her heaving bosom ; - dare no one say
That moss about her grows.

Too soon forgot, and racked with sobs
She really knows not why;-
It was only for a few weeks,
And he was just another guy.

Very sad. Short term relationships can be devastating for one or both of the parties. A true love is like "More then the Stars" a poem I wrote June 2016.

Thanks trurorob,... for the comment.... I am working on a more streamlined type of poetical expression; however Ithis is not really suitable for longer works
