After love

The dreams
Lay shattered
About your feet
And the winds song
Leaves the soul
And cries into the night
In stunning silence
The disbelief that eternity
Was but a moment
And words of love
Just water
Trickling through your fingers

In sorrows happenstance
We feign civility
And walk with stumbled pride
And hope the night
Be a sponge to tears
Soaking up the fears
We hide inside

With a lover's pride
I hold the love
For after love
My soul has no wind
To guide it home
