A Lovers Lie - A Sonnet

Golden leaves dance gracefully

In gentle silver breeze.

The whispers in the trees

Sing like sailors' songs at sea.

And there, beneath the twinkling star

You danced like silver dew

Then, in my heart I knew

That twilight lovers never scar.

The precious dream you left behind,

I loved with all that's true

Like every lover loves their lie.

And every moment floating by

My broken heart loved you

Like mountain Latmos loved the sky.
