falling shadows

the daunting rays shimmer
the moonlight in your tears,
while the bloomless days of april
mirror the state of your fears

when creepy shadows peep
through the window of our glee,
winter's tattered memories
ponder the autumn in your spree

while rampant chords echoed
our nuptial chants that night,
malice invaded, languidly,
the placid moment's tide

how graciously in defeat
along the mortal crest,
passion in one fatal heave,
splashed to shattered, labored rest
