Reason or Rhyme

'Why must you shed such tender tears,

In the evening of your years?

No other love could stem the tide,

Of the loneliness I hide.

 

Open your heart and let me live,

All the promises I could give.

The sun and moon and all the stars,

They bow down to you,

Whenever you pass.

In a world of fading sadness,

An emerald ring, a photograph.

 

That look in your eyes, the brush of your cheek,

These are the moments in life that I seek.

No reason or rhyme, no presence of mind,

Just a dance to the music of time.'
