Echoes of Longing

The day you lit my heart with love,
I knew I would be left burning.
As the pages of our moments unfurled swiftly,
I knew they would be torn.
But I also knew it would be fun
till it ceased,
so I simply chose to move on.
Despite knowing that
the end would be tragic,
the wonders were nothing
but an ephermal magic,
I let you swing my wand of luck.
You showered love, longing,
the sense of belonging,
unwary expectations,
ecstatic sensations,
and what not?
Like autumn leaves seeking their tree,
I yearn for you,
but you're not with me.
Like a missing note in a melody,
I'm searching for you, endlessly.
Where are you? Come back.
