Music, Miss You

Long days, grueling
   No music
Quiet, no sound
   Work, whine,
    So blue...

Music I left you
Back there in my mind
Where shadows weep
  Darkness echoes
I feared your power
  To revive sad memories.

Music, I slowly forgot
  You sing joy
And celebration
  Love, desire, fire,
Not only raining clouds
  Of empty misery.

Music, I miss you.
