08-The Buried Truth Sonnet Poem by Anthony D Bailey

Dedicated to Maria KA

Thou once enquired how I did miss thee,
But not two months have past since our farewell,
Though that time to me seems an eternity,
So lovely Latina, thee I must tell.
Thou absence has been a curse on my heart,
A day never passed without thought of you,
My life is wasted, should we stay apart,
Yet ruined are lives if my love was true.
So my burden is to live without thee,
And carry this sting until claimed by death,
To save thee and kin from pain is my plea,
This fact will not leave me while I have breath.
Dare not ask how I miss thee, I implore,
For my truth shall stay buried evermore.
