I lean against the columns
Of my sorrow,
Ruling my own kingdom
Of loneliness,
Graceful isolation sustained
By memories of you,
Singing with the echoes
Of thoughts I want to forget
Secret passions becoming
A painful exhalation,
Wrapped in mournful silk
Shadows are moving
In beautiful twilight,
Consuming the time,
Leaving a grieving imprint and
Pushing me into nothingness
My hands whisper to my eyes
While wiping away the sadness,
My tears are weeping
Gentle songs, unheard,
And sorrow
Softly holds my hand
A whispering shadow
Is painting dreams in my eyes,
Waves are calling your name
Dancing across my heart,
Passionate cadenza of your voice
Whirling in my soul
I touched growing love
In far away dreams,
A fragile flower blooming
Amid the devastation
Of my essence…
And I hear the clouds crying
I felt your kiss brush against
My lips in nuances of song,
I felt your passion
In a soul full of whispers,
And seen your emerald reflection
In pools of tears at my feet
You are my soul’s shadow
Looking at me with
Thoughtful contemplation,
Bringing back lost enchantments,
In this shining moment
When all becomes clear
I can no longer remember
The sorrow of my past
If only…
