Queen of Hearts

Not long ago, in the island of destiny, along shores of life, bright castles in sight

In the play of inane silence, emerged in red, to the Knight's delight - the Queen of hearts.

Hath not the knights and noblemen glanced before, on shadows of such beauty still

And the Knight beguiled the epiphany of romance, an unseen, unarmed, unambiguous romance

Rising, he hoped, beyond illusions, delusions, beyond dunes and mirages of the desert behind

Imagined, the knight, an augmented reality, but the Queen was a cryptic, enchanting engima, vanished that night

'Knight ! Beware!!, the Queen is just passing by.' But the magic, alas ! there was no love of tomorrow

And, on the altar of wishes, tonight, the Knight was seen, clasping hands, smiling under city lights.

so long, and thanks for all the love

Good times- the last month or so; the kind of time when you often catch that glimmer in their eyes which says-its going to end soon, but not yet- not so soon. And you know that they aren't just people passing by.....
