LOVE AND LONELINESS

You are at your best 

And the world too 

Is a lot richer 

When you are following 

The commands of your heart.

Fulfilling a destiny you desire.

Heart has a great companion

Fantasy 

And your imagination 

Supplies everything 

That you feel 

Starved of 

Mind is a critical device 

Douses your  imagination 

Quenches fantasies

And takes your wings off 

Leaving you to 

To crawl 

Those who followed 

Their heart

Accomplished great things 

Yet lived in self imposed exile 

And died with a feeling 

Of partial fulfilment 

The mental hounds too

Accomplished great things 

Yet they felt in their sides

An emotional hollow

They were lonely 

In their final moments
