Love Poem: Fragile Sins

Fragile Sins

The sound of her footsteps 
An echo dancing in misery
As the windows bow to this epiphany
Holding hands with the dim light
Hugging the warm night

The sound of a violin appears
Crying out of fear
Clouds pouring tears
The sky starts to scream
Even reality chooses to dream

Love has forsaken my fragile sins
I haven't felt a thing ever since
Even the green carpets left the stage
Left me an ink drop on a torn page

I reminisce on the old days
When our lilies used to sway
When your smile got me shivers
And our imaginary sons used to play

But did you have to leave?
Couldn't you just stay?
Stay in my arms I beg you .. 
If only you knew,
How much I pray….

Sing for me .. Sing my eternal song
Come to where your heart belongs
Let's bathe in moonlight
And kiss the night away
Tell me where you are
And I'll know the way
