With Bated Breath
wistful recollections awaken
intriguing emotions to follow
towards the desolate path
heartless roads once paved
barren fields beneath the stone
amidst the shadows of rock
thirst for more than tears
eventide's sighs often bring
dare she trust to love again?
beneath the lambent light
rising moon now full
emits a glow upon the path
attempting to allure her along
towards the passage of fate
heart agape sighs with bated breath
