` Sea of Lost Love`

your charm has faded

    the lure has surfaced 

     to float away

to a distant shore

in an instant~ no more

than the

 depth of a heartbeat

 

 a soul's breath

faint waves left

washed up

   to disappear and dissolve

     into a sea of lost love

the way you started this one was so perfect... it stirred up those waves that came crashing into the sea of love and then washing away, eroding the fantasy one bit at a time, fading off into the distance as you hear the other waves doing the same... very moving.. the construction of this is exquisite paired with the powerful lines and emotion that you are able to portray beautifully... one of my favorites...

Does seem like an instant when it happens, you blink your eyes and it seems to have disappeared, where does love dissipate to? I like jacob's query....this is excellent Fran.

which brings up a philosophical question...

"how deep is a heartbeat?"

really like this Fran Marie....just enough and just a little to get us pondering.

I really don't know, I wonder that myself, also if the soul sighs a breath when the spirit dies~ thanks; Jacob; for reading, so much appreciated;
