Listen softly...
hear the silence of my heart.
What once was a triumphant song
of beauty and pleasure,
sings no more.
Words full of harmony,
created deep in my soul
out of an intense love for only you,
have now all but hushed,
leaving me with the echoes
of a cherished ballad once sung.
Oh to hear the music again...
to sway with passion's melody,
and dance with sweet abandon.
Listen softly...
as you hear the chords fade,
leaving just a memory
of instruments that once played
notes of love and longing.
The beat of desire has faded
leaving only a chorus
of trickling tears,
that no one will ever hear,
within my silent heart.
