OUR SONG.

 

 

OUR SONG.


Sonorously resonant and meaningful
our melody did not die,
.#~#.
it just decompressed, is now lying
at rest and folded.

 

It currently has but few usable lines, 
yet once alive and flowing
.#~#.
love\'s ballad, styled in momentary
angst, remains composed.

 

Though down to occasional base-beats
and presently weakened
.#~#.
with the weight of infrequency
love does not let go.

 

What we are told is to practise when
passive sears contact,
.#~#.
melts accord or sings unclearly
and love rightly knows.

 

Our orchestra may yet strike up love\'s
music as distrust mellows
.#~#.
and nostalgia re-wires tight keys
of each rusted blue-note.

 

Love\'s concerto if left incomplete still
strums fragmented themes
.#~#.
in minor\'s slow beats and quietly
hums harmonic tones.

 

Love yearns to compose its rhapsody
using duo-baton guide,
.#~#.
and thinks it high time to re-create 
our song without lows.
