In lieu of logic, lyric
the entrance sudden, colorful -
swept away within the tango
between tree and falling leaves

neither torrent of rain
nor calamity of branch
lost in shadow, could eclipse
the rising note, once subtle in the distance
now prominent - striking
in the hollows where the lovelorn
store their embers

but somehow, some times
even in its chamber of protection -
the heart will simply follow

The heart knows not logic, the heart only understands passion and emotions, it follows these emotions blindly one might say. Still, while the passion is high there is nothing quite like it on the face of this old earth.
