The greatest love I never had
stands before my eyes
illustrating life and song
cloaked in soft surprise
Taking me above desire
I dared not dream for long
Wake me not before the cardinal
speaks to right his wrong
The purest trust I ever gave
calmed my loneliness with a word
silence brought fears to their death
and peace was all I heard
The longest kiss I never felt
whets my lips with passion
There is no other, for my heart
is chained to his distraction
Chilling realization brings
clarity to my soul
subtle reminders - the future prose
of the greatest love story never told
