No More.

Now stilled the ocean's

ceaseless quest

 

as mighty oaks let fall

their crowns.

 

The Skylark's song drips

cracked and raw

across a careless dawn;

 

while rays of gold

no more bequeath

the smile that lit upon

my door.

 

For time's cruel hand

has taken back

 

the heart that beat within

my own.
