Echoes of Love

Upon a field of dreams and sorrows, I stood and watched the stars above, And in the silence of tomorrow, I whispered a silent love. The wind did blow, the leaves did rustle, As I looked up to the sky, And with each passing gust and bustle, I felt my heart begin to sigh. For in the darkness of the night, I saw the stars shine so bright, But in their gleam, a haunting sight, Of memories I cannot fight. Like echoes from a distant past, The memories of my love did come, In a ghostly dance, they did outlast, The beating of my heart, a drum. And as I stood and watched in wonder, The stars began to fade away, And in the stillness and the thunder, I knew my love had gone astray. Yet still I stood and watched in awe, As the stars danced in the sky, And in their light, I saw the raw, Emotions of my heart on high. But as the night grew old and dreary, And the stars grew dim and cold, I knew my love, a lost and eerie, Story to be forever told. So let the stars shine down on me, As I stand and watch in wonder, For in their light, my heart will see, The love that I'll always remember, But never again will unearth.
