Where the willows weep

Beneath the willow’s gentle sway,

Where moonlight paints the night with gold,

I found your heart, so far away,

A tale of love yet to be told.

Your eyes, a storm in silent skies,

Held secrets deep as oceans blue,

And in their depths, I sought to rise,

To find the love that once I knew.

We danced where shadows kissed the light,

Our whispers mingled with the breeze,

Each breath a promise, pure and bright,

A vow to set our hearts at ease.

But time, a thief with subtle hands,

Stole moments we could never keep,

And in the place where love once stands,

The willows now are left to weep.

Yet in my dreams, you still remain,

A phantom soft, a fleeting touch,

And though the world may turn to rain,

I’ll love you always, oh so much.

For in the night, where willows weep,

And moonlight bathes the world in gold,

Our love, in shadows, will still keep,

A tale of longing, never old.
