Love is a complex weaving
of music and lyrics that play upon the heart
like the lingering fragrance of memories winding like rivers
through the shadows of the past
more beautiful on reflection than reality recalls
drifting weightless in the dissonant shallows
and the endless depths of my songs of sorrow
like petals bending under the weight of the dew
I feel the weight of the absence of you
