Like a little 

House sparrow

In a winter

Of sorrow

She's waits 

At his table

For breadcrumbs

Of love

Standing for hours

Till sun turns

To showers

Till seeds 

Turn to flowers

Before she

Gives up

Wings of love
start to flutter
two heartbeats fly
into each other.

I hope she doesn't have to give up. Such loyalty should be respected. Beautiful rhyme.
