A Crimson Stain

The sun dips low, a crimson stain,

Across the sky, a fading pain.

A heart once whole, now cracked and torn,

By memories cherished, now forlorn.

A whispered dream, a fleeting sight,

Of love's embrace, a pure delight.

But fate's cruel hand, a twist of art,

Has torn us apart, a broken heart.

The distance grows, a chasm wide,

Between our souls, where shadows hide.

A yearning ache, a longing deep,

For moments lost, where sorrows sleep.

I hold your image, a fading light,

A cherished memory, a bittersweet sight.

But in your eyes, a flicker of doubt,

A hesitation, a chilling shout.

I cling to hope, a fragile thread,

A desperate prayer, a wish unsaid.

But in your heart, another's claim,

A love unshared, a different aim.

I accept the truth, though bitter and cold,

A love unreturned, a story that's untold.

The pain remains, a constant ache,

A love unfulfilled, a heart to break.
