Melancholia

This bittersweet memories led me 
back to yesterday’s laughter;
looking back at the awakening 
and rise of the throb of two hearts 
that were once in love together.
The heavenly hues and 
shades were in sight everywhere.
The chirping birds, the blowing wind, 
and the murmur of waterfall 
delighted the open ear.
This mind scrutinized and categorized 
each and every fiber of the imagery.
We savored the reminiscence 
of the promising future happily.
As this sob now creates a dream,
the whisper complains 
of the gloom to the moon:
“I hope it’s still possible”.
