Once upon a time, in the days of youth\'s embrace,
A love story unfolded, innocent in its grace.
Her face, a vision of beauty, brought endless delight,
Each smile, each kiss, painted memories so bright.
Those blissful days linger, unforgettable and pure,
As I recall the moments, love\'s allure.
An old picture holds her essence, frozen in time,
A glimpse of happiness when my heart was in its prime.
But memories, elusive, like clouds in the sky,
They dance and fade, no matter how hard I try.
A melancholic tune plays, echoing in my soul,
A bittersweet reminder of a love I cannot control.
As years pass, I grow older, and it\'s harder to forget,
Yet, life\'s journey beckons, and I must reset.
Though etched in my heart, a scar that still remains,
I move forward, carrying love\'s enduring strains.
In quiet moments, I reminisce with wine and melodies,
The past rushes back, like waves on tranquil seas.
But amidst the longing, a newfound strength arises,
From the sadness, lessons learned, resilience crystallizes.
Life mirrors the sea, with its calm and storms in flight,
Clear skies, rough waters, a rainbow\'s radiant light.
I find solace in nature\'s gifts, vibrant and true,
Green leaves, blooming flowers, a sky so blue.
With the passage of time, wisdom takes hold,
White hairs a testament to stories untold.
Love\'s spirit prevails, in the rhyme of my heart,
Guiding me forward, even as memories impart.
For though my first love lingers, a ghost from the past,
I embrace the present, knowing love will last.
In the vast expanse of life\'s celestial sphere,
I find solace, amidst moonlight and stars, so dear.
