Love Echoes

I feel my fingers melting

as you step out of my skin.

The mist of time

quells the spirits

speaking to my soul

through locked doors

and dusty shelves.

My heart weeps

in still of evening,

blank pages stare

back at me.

Silence decays

as I whisper your name

in roaring words

but our time has

blown away

on wings of a dove.

Heavy lids and

burdened heart

drawn on wet canvas

pages keep turning

as sun drowns

on my sea.

I’m lost inside

without you

time walks on

to cast shadows.

Love echoes

but doesn’t repeat.

If only my world

would end

with you.

Time will tell

years from now.

A beat of the heart

is timeless.
