Poem Commentary

Quam Amoena means how lovely.

Amoena

Lost words replay in my head
Regretting things I should have said
There is no one to blame
It is purely mine to claim
I was so near
Yet I let her disappear
"Quam Amoena" was she
In my eyes Aphrodite
But this Goddess flew off into the night
Now her memory is my only light
