Landscapes Lost

Heartbreak takes it toll as love moves on. All is fair in love and war..is it?

Landscapes lost as time evolves
Continents drift apart over millennia
Nature nurtures constant change
Change, it nurtured you

Hearts are countries unexplored
Fearless, I set out
Risking all that I possessed!
Ascending the summits of emotion

Men have conquered countries
As battle hardened lives were lost
Battle hardened hearts would fall!
Assailing your defences
.
Yet I was not your victor
Vanquished in the fog of love
Other men would set their sights
Claim their right to win fair hand

You and I would drift apart
Change, it nurtured you
Continents drift apart over millenia
Fragmented hearts are much the same!

This makes me so sad :( You catch emotion greatly in your verses.

My favorite line is 5, it really catches the eye of the reader. And seems to make a great focal.

You wrote this well. Thank you for the giving us this pleasure :)
