yearning

As evening arrives, sorrow visits.

Your phantom, yearned for throughout the day

never appeared.

Standing quietly by the fence,

you smile your wondrous smile.

I am speechless, and my senses are filled

by the sounds of your beautiful song,

beginningless and endless.

I bow deeply to you.
