MELANCHOLIC VERSUS

Salzburg! an Austrian city glistens,

Feathery white snow, of heavens,

Flakes of the Alpine mountains,

Freezing pines, wind so intense,

Chilly breeze, clipping my ears,

Warm in my arms, clutching my collars,

She watched me, her celestial eyes,

My feelings, of being in paradise!

She implored will you love me forever?

I pledged, with all my heart, together

We hiked happily, all over the city,

Me happier, with a girl so pretty,

Rowed in the Salzach river,

Till the Bavarian, German border,

Operas, concerts, theatre performances,

Hohensalzburg fortress, to all 27 churches!

Finally, we rested on Mirabell Gardens,

Clasping my hand, with perplexed passion,

Auburn hair hallowed, shrouded her expression,

Quizzical question in love, forbidden,

Will you sacrifice your life for, me?

I Said no and she left me, to bereave!

Not knowing, she is my life,

My future beloved wife,

My fuzzy mind, harder to believe,

Truth without proof, can’t retrieve,

The extreme deficit of empathy,

With unique agony of uncertainty,

But, don’t want to hurt my heart,

Still, it belongs to her!!
