The Candy crush saga,
she had called it.
A heart breaking summer,
sense labeled it.
Many had tried,
but none had succeeded.
Her smile, bright as
day, was the exception.

From that day on,
she was the only one.
She had executed
a trifecta.
She was the
only one I truly loved.

The only one to have
shattered my heart.

Yet I returned, a love-sick
lamb to the slaughter.
Hoping one day to give
life to her daughters.
Oh, the beauty defined
by our offspring.

A figment of
my imagination.

It wasn't meant to be,
and so her soul remains free.
