Herewith Lies The Death Of Love

For, in Love we must realize-
the spark of truth within the eyes
can not be masqued by ornate lies,
can not take hold its ivory ties,

Can not sleep with the lambs forsooth,
nor settle for inane half-truths,
as bereft of passions quantum sum,
love will fade like distant drums,
an eerie echo, setting sun,
the aching heart of love undone.

No burial, roses, eulogy,
love dies here in ambiguity.
