Like a wandering troubador I roam through life.
Not because I look for something, but rather for someone.
Many years ago i saw her, yet her lovely countenance always remains foremost in my thoughts.
Her rosy cheeks, her full red lips, the soft touch of her skin on mine.
For only the briefest of moments were we together,
Yet all of time seemed to stand as nothing more than the backdrop to the drama of our love.
Then, all too soon she turned from me, and faded into obscurity.
Now I wander, looking for my lost love.
No longer a young suitor, I am an old man,
Looking for nothing more than her lips warm caress before the cold embrace of the grave takes me.
Many years it has been, and many more shall pass, but still I wander, looking, hoping, that she is still mine.

Lost in Emptiness
Pretty sad. Reminds me of the Dirty Vegas "Days Go By" Video.

I would call the title: Remembrance of my Love ... or perhaps: Memories of Love Gone By
I really could not think of a title that would fit this poem. It seems as if the lover has died and the old one remembers the lover as if the death did not ever happen. The young love in the old man remains as if the lover never grew old like the old man did.

Images with a touch of pain..nice :)
I will not say anything about the title, because those are your thoughts, your words and deep down inside you know the perfect title..
best of luck

Call it "Still Mine"
It could use a bit of editing but it's otherwise fine. Unrequited love is a legitimate theme in poetry and you have captured its pain.

OK. (Wandering for my first love.) That's good. Hope you didn't copy it of somewhere. Good enough, yes?
