Frances Schiavina Poet Lyric

Endless Love

You are leaving 
the nest
in the spring
of two hearts 
intertwined 
to sing
flying back 
to the north 
cause you're strong
defiantly to survive
on your own
midday shadow
black veil 
of dawn
rose fragrance
perspiring 
through thorns
in the north
will you shiver alone
yet another
in your nest
will find home
love debt in time
will melt
to an endless sea 
of regrets
with wailing
returning to sand
to an empty nest 
you heart 
never left.
A whisper 
as from living dead
by ear of the heart
only heard:
smile to me
love said
don't be sad.
