Echoes Of Your Essence
-------------------------

The echoes of your essence
succumb to evanescence

The rapture captured in a
fractured iridescent tear

The tearful gleeful joy swoops,
freefalls in loves parting fear

The hollow sorrow of a
morrow distant as a year

The echoes of your essence
succumb to evanescence

Evanescense

Essence

Sense

Thanks so much for your wonderful comments, they are very much appreciated. Max [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
