The saddest of all love songs

Love rules all, even memories..

 

Softly she plays for him
The melody of sweet love
To her one and only
The man she has ever loved.

Yet so far away he has gone
On a promise of returning to the seas of where she stays.
Tis a promise he had made
On that cold winters day.

His love was special, true and divine
Just the two of them, with nothing but sweet time
Like wrapped in a bottle, preserved to never leave
Yet only to uncork it, then disappear into the sea.

So each night on this ledge, of the cliff by the sea
She stands under the moons bright rays
And softly plays her violin to the breeze
Her song of love, of hope and faith.

The music softly sounding out
Along with her fate...

The song of heartbreak
The song of loss
The song of deep pain
For the love she had lost.

Each night she stands
Her boa still and quiet, eyes closed
Then slowly... She starts to play
The sound pouring forth with such beauty.

For what was once, now no longer, for now gone
Her dreams now just mere memories
Their time together now faded far away
And her tears fall so gently.

Towards the sea down below
The water's edge greedily catches them
To never let them go
Like all other lovers, that did the same.

Her tears to blend with them
And so shall others one day
And she plays.. And plays..

Her song to her true love..

The heavens listen quietly
To the sweet sounds below.

For no other sound so heartfelt
No other sound so filled with despair
As coming from the woman
The woman with the long flaming black hair.

To the breeze, she sends them
With hopes that one day he might hear
Along the wind it passes, and along with it her fear
For him to never come back, is something she could not bear.

So with her heart she plays
The saddest of all love songs
That she's ever sent forth
The melody moves forward, then the wind carries each note.

To the sky.. The heavens.. Her true love, she prays..

For the melody to reach him
On one windy day
To have him remember
What they shared before he went away.

So till then she will stand, and softly play
Her music of love, of her pain and heartbreak
Her song for her one and only
Her song for her one true love..

In the saddest of all love songs, she plays on and on
Into the darkest of the nights
With the moons rays shinning down on her
Keeping her safely in its sight.

Another amazing new poem. When you find that one true love that can transcend all emotions and all time, that is when you feel complete. But the longing for that comfort when they leave your side leaves you in a puddle of your own tears. This reminds me of a story I once saw on a show. Where a woman waited and waited for her love to return. She waited so long that her body turned to stone yet even as time passed her ghost would sit there and continue waiting for her love. This is another great poem.
