xi. seasonal love

I sought you during winter,

winter when the snow stuck to the ground ,

wanting your transient presence to linger.

I sought you during summer,

summer when the fiery yellow sphere was at its glory,

seeking reassurance, through your voice's gentle murmur.

I sought you during the rain,

the rain when the heavens were pouring down,

seeking deliverance from refuted love's pain.

I sought you during the spring,

spring when all of creation is elated,

but of your evasion of me, even the flowers sing.

But then when you sought me,

I was the one to elude,

undeceived by former memory.

And never shall such a time come,

during all seasons of the year,

when I return to where my erstwhile lover 's from.
