You may be restless spirit that wander far
But in my heart where loves doesn't die, you're always near
The stars have decided that you must go
To follow music and rhythm you do not know
you must heed their bidding tho it be not your will
you must leave as your heart has grown still
You're weary wanderer who have travelled long
Trying to sing too many a song
you're tired minstrel whose heart was torn
And I am a broken lover whose love has gone
So I must tarry on, for it is your destiny
I will not weep for you are where you belong
May you find everlasting peace at the sun rise of a fallen dawn
I have no answers yet though I know my heart
I have love inside that cries to be let free
I hold onto the yearnings and the feelings
And know that your journey has only begun
The wind whispers in lonely delight
The soul trembles as it takes flight
And yet, there's sunlight, clear and strong
And the moon's beautiful as it goes down
The memories don't fade
Happiness of the soul rests under the shade
My tears create "ice" upon my cheeks
but I love you dispite the miseries.

wow, this write had me crying from the first few lines. i myself am a musician and i was teaching my best friend how to play guitar for a good while. i know that sounds kind of irrelevant but it triggers a lot of good memories of all the good times that we had. i have a piece that i wrote called memoriam that highlights those if you'd like to take a look at it sometime. thank you so much for entering, and i would like to add this poem to the ever growing list of my favorite poems by authors on this site. please let me know if thats ok with you.

"The memories don't fade"
This was a wonderful stanza in the poem. Memories don't fade if you don't let them fade. I think that's very important and it shows in this poem.
