Songs Of Barren Love

o' dear summer
will you melt this bleeding snow
songs of barren love

songs of barren love
lost in your silent gazes
trust and faith misplaced

trust and faith misplaced
yet, a faint drop of hope blooms
amidst shadows dark

amidst shadows dark
lost affections guide us through
to togetherness



This Haiku is shared with Haiku My Heart - Soul Humming.

    1. Affections may have got lost but not the memories ... perhaps, some day those memories may reflect on the future, brighter and happier :-)
