Starry eyed boy wandering lost
Searching for love Απϑ trust long gone burst
Starry eyed boy looking forlorn Απϑ crushed
Clasped in cupid’s grip, fearful of (again) being brushed.
*
Dreamer boy looking empty Απϑ drained
Years of pining leaving his heart well strained
Stretched Απϑ parched heart truly starved
Of love unrequited Απϑ emotions cruelly staved.
*
Eons of wandering in inner recesses does not set free
This heart shackled Απϑ trapped to a rooted tree
For his love lies there dead Απϑ buried
While his tongue cries to utter that which still lay unfurled.
*
Dreamer boy starry eyed Απϑ lost
In thought for that which truly was his first
Snatched away cruelly while still in dreamland
Even before his love he could finally demand.
