I DREAM OF YOU (2)

I dream of you
beneath burgundy skies
and sounds of violins
that stopped long ago
but which I still hear.
Somewhere in time,
I loved you.
Somewhere inside,
I still do.
Fragile piano keys
play your melody
only on the skin of my heart,
and yet the drum inside
can feel it with every beat.
Your absence
fills me with longing.
