Unrequited

by Mad Hatter - Capricorn



The clean scent of rain drifts
through an open window,
Promising a fresh start,
Heralding an early spring. 

Keep waiting for the phone to ring. . . .

Love’s fickle allure shifts and turns
bittersweet with each passing hour.
Trust flickers and burns out,
Dropping to earth, a dying flower

Numbed by the wasp’s sweet sting.
Birth sign: Capricorn
