It would take a true heartist
to ever
make sweet music
with these broken strings...

soft
love notes
played by players
with unfaithful hands

dirges
drawn forth from lullabies ...

I cry

Enough...

Let not this music be
forever the sound
of tears

but lift me once more to my crecesndo
with but your soft caress

that my heart
may once more know love



be my metronome
that I may again beat in time

anew.
