REFLECTIONS © 2011

Oh! Music,

Silence the weeping that echoes,

In the rhythms of this naked soul,

That, barefoot, wanders aimlessly

Through dreams that once were whole.

Do not hammer the pain anymore,

Let the wind carry the lament,

May the bitterness fade away

In the serene depths of forgetfulness.

The crushed heart

Still sings in every beat,

But in the melody of the past,

Hope slips away, bittersweet.

Surely it will weep,

Like the sea, in waves of longing,

But in its depths, it shall find

The peace that is coming.

The loss of your great love,

Is the silence that follows,

But music will always be

The core that fills the emptiness in us.
