Love Poem: Heartbroken

Heartbroken

Be mine, my love for eternity, 
      I perfectly thought with certainty. 

   I was only thirteen and in dreams  
      or so it seemed, my mind sunny gleams.

   He would saunter the school halls with friends;
      I would watch past weakness sense extends.

   I couldn't wane his blue eyes dreams of love, 
      my promise amid bright stars above. 

   I at last got his eyes attention, 
      but to late a look or a mention. 

   Parents decided to move across,
      the country, my heartbroken and loss.

   I saw him once again years later,
      a wife and children he did cater

   He was too busy, he didn't see me,
      so ashamed I hid behind a tree. 

   Seeing him once more, laughter and tears
      brought  lost memories of those last years.
