Yearned Harmony
Before it was a simple tune,
A lonesome sound, wan and dull
But he came and savored the music;
He sketched a utopia; abysmal hopesEvery note he furnished, battled up despair;
Thus, because of this phantom
I found the missing melody of my soul
And without him is a mislaid harmonySo if the music stops, will our rhythms fade?
