Heart’s Strings
Would to God
That you were by my side
Not a haunting face
I dream of at night
Taunting, teasing me
With your promises
Swearing that all will be kept
Yet to this day nothing, nothing
Action is needed lest I forget
A well-spring of love
That once poured forth
Obvious to all
The depth of its worth
But time slips away
With no one to play
Upon these, my heart’s strings left silent
Beloved, where have you gone?
That you were by my side
Not a haunting face
I dream of at night
Taunting, teasing me
With your promises
Swearing that all will be kept
Yet to this day nothing, nothing
Action is needed lest I forget
A well-spring of love
That once poured forth
Obvious to all
The depth of its worth
But time slips away
With no one to play
Upon these, my heart’s strings left silent
Beloved, where have you gone?
