Forever Fades Too Soon

Hearts had played happily
Those strings in harmony
Until one notices a fading
Pondering notes wistfully

Our heartstrings in accord
How together used to be
As forever begins to end
Into just a fading memory

Entwined into loving duets
Words matching the tune
One lonely heart lingered
As forever fades too soon

Where words are retained
Of what once used to be
A heart in solitary confine
Still dwelling on a memory

As the dreams gather dust
Within the changes I view
For the heart without tune
Writes words wistfully blue

Hope, this is perfect, I feel the emotion. I especially like the last stanza.

this last stanza:

"As the dreams gather dust
Within the changes I view
For the heart without tune
Writes words wistfully blue"

is an excellent ending to an exquisite write

Dear Hope, this is so very beautiful in content and form. It touches my heart for the melancholy it expresses.
I just saw an advertising for an Italian movie called “L’amore è eterno finché dura” (Love is eternal as long as it lasts)!
Love and hugs.

"Entwined in loving duets"..
..This sounds like how love ought to be.  Another lovely read.  Your heart shines through so brightly in these poems.
