Bitter Taste

Memories flutter like sun-kissed leaves
In the gentle breeze of summer days
Love may die but the echoes linger
And then they also fade away

That touch that once ignited passion
Has become a faint and distant thing
It’s lost in time’s relentless passage
The choir of love no longer sings

Our hopes, our dreams, just fade away
All our plans in disarray
What we had has been replaced
Leaving just this bitter taste

The symphony of love becomes with time
Just a murmur, a faded rhyme

Our hopes, our dreams, just fade away
All our plans in disarray
What we had has been displaced
Leaving just this bitter taste
