Sad Love Songs

The softest voices could cry

While singing
Lyrics to the sweetest

Lullaby

Speak, with such an angelic tongue

Rhyme, within-

So much rhythm

Inside all those drowning words.

We could waltz forever to
On a floor we'd dance
Our hearts apart
Swifting and swaying
The night away
In one flowing trance
No words needed to be said
What would last forever

You'd already imagine

Coming, straight from your heart 

Heard from the echoes

Smoothly, sounding like

The invisible tears in the rain.

Falling and pounding down

Upon its harmonic beat

Sync, with all its silent chords

That strum inside the chorus

A melody so sublime

It whispers your name

All in one tune.
