The Heart's Rebellion

Strumming through a restless night,Echoes of a silent fight. She walks in shadows, far from light, Her laughter's close, yet far from sight. In dreams we dance, beneath moon's glow,Reality's harsh, won’t let us go. Why must love be a battleground,Where heartbeats lost, but never found? Impossible, they say, to cross the line, Where stars collide, and hearts entwine. Yet here I stand, defying the divine,In love with the ghost I can't define. Whispers in the air, the scent of pine,Memories on which we dine. But morning comes, she fades away,Just out of reach, in light of day. Haunted by what cannot be,This love is my unsung melody. Impossible, they cry, to love a shade,A heart entangled in the masquerade. Yet I'll keep singing till the debts are paid,For the phantom love that never fades. So I'll strum this night away,Until our souls might find a way. Echoing the impossible,The love that’s mine, imperishable.
