Y is for Yearn

Aches lie in the heart,

And love shines through the moon.

For all that is forfeit

and all that is attained;

For all that is forborne

and all that is endured;

For paths untrodden

and dreams unrealized,

Yearning sings slow

her melancholic notes.

And slashes the spirit

into chains of tears.

Aches lie in the heart

And love,

Love shines through the moon.
