Exquisit Paradox

Day so bright, so bright, so pale,
The sun so high to no avail,
Shadows ripple through the trees,
Swaying slowly, phantom breeze,
Sun so high, day so gray,
Exquisite paradox to say,
Whats there is not and there is she,
In shades of gray, but none to see,
What never was will always be,
but none to see, save me, save me.

Day so pale, so bright, so pale,
The sun so bright to no avail,
No shadows dance amoung the leaves,
Standing stoic, razor breeze,
Sun so low, day so gray,
Exqusite Paradox to say,
Whats not is there, and there is she,
in shades of gray for all to see,
what never was will always be,
for all to see, save me, save me.


 Let winds rage, seas boil and years curse,
My love shal live everyoung in my verse.

Hi everbody. I haven't been around for a bit(not that anyone noticed i'm sure), so HELLO TO ALL. I can't remember if I posted this one already, so my apologies if I have.

It is one of my favourites after all

Hi Glorfindel, welcome back! I like the sound of this. I'm not sure I understand it all but I get the sense of someone lost in a depression of some sort longing for something or someone. I like the flow of it too!
