Come back, my love!

From distant yesterdays, a cry
Echoes where the deserts lie.
A heart alone, concealed within,
A soul that once was full of life and sin.

It races through the shifting sand,
Not knowing where to make a stand.
In frantic steps, it shouts the plea,
"Come back, return, my love, to me!"

Overwhelmed by all it feels,
By memories that time conceals,
It longs to say a last goodbye,
One wish among the stars that die.
