Another Below Par Masterpiece: Issue #2

by Xie

  Lost and long ago...
I dreamed of violet skies,
And luscious fields of green.
         All is lost,
         All is gone.
 It seems so long ago...
I whispered in the evening winds,
Of treachery bound deep inside.
         All is lost,
         All is gone.
 What must have been a lifetime ago...
The world was new, conjecture excepted,
Unquestioningly, contently - bewitched by time.
         All is lost,
         All is gone.
 A shadow of time long, long ago...
In the innocent twilight of my youth,
I slipped on memories - vast seas of hope betrayed...
     Forever lost and long ago.
