The Melancholy Lover's Rant
What is memory but artifice?
Schwärmerei in family albums.
Solitaire's looped golden glint, in velvet,
Nestled. A gift thrust carelessly;
Gestures to blur boundaries of despair.
Else, memory's love gone awry? A refrain,
Oft, repeated by Love's flushed roses:
Love's transience pressed betwixt pages.
