Scintillating starlit night romantic
Stellar brilliance ecstatic
Nebular luminiscence fantastic...
Alas! A 'Lonesome Starry Night',
Twinkling stars resplendant flickering delights
Despondent and desolate on a beaming blissful night ....
All that glitter lost in the uncherished solitary moping
The cerulean glamour atrophied by memories fretting
Under the sterling canopy, shining and shimmering...
Reminiscing those old delectable fruity moments
Recalling love at first sight's flavourful incidents
Reliving those blossoming snuggles of fond excitement...
Lugging my emotional baggage too heavy to carry
Tweaking the strings of my loving heart now weary
Tugging at my conscience and scruples brutally...
Repenting the loss of the tender heart's rhythmic beats
Regretting the absence of the cute gentle tweets
Missing those loving smiles of affection then upbeat ...
On A Lonesome, Loveless Starry Night !
A Lovelorn, Lovesick maiden's Languishing Night !
