There is a sweet scent on the breeze

familiar, like a dream

I breathe deeply

hear the blossoms whispering

as they fall

I think suddenly of you

and sorrow flows over me

It is bittersweet

this season of sighs

For it returns you to me

Ethereal

and I am lost

ever reaching for shadows

Abandoned

over and over
