A Love Lost
Caught inside a painting,
A Rembrandt, made of her family's hopes and dreams
Searching for happiness,
Within a two dimensional canvas, little scope there seems
Outside the colours,
Someone captivated by her beauty, hearing her empty screams
Only for the key,
Longing to be outside, he opens the door and beams
Filled with intrepidation,
Beckoning “come outside”, his love for her it teems
She turns away,
For others she must stay, hiding from her dreams.
