Solace in silence

O\'er the course of this life, overshadowed by feelings of melancholy
 
And infinite sadness, in vain do I seek thee in the lines of my heart.
 
Thou hast absorbed my existence, and we art now as one.
 
Yet still, I wander, lost in the echo of thy presence,
 
As the fading light of day, that yields not to the night’s embrace,
 
I find solace only in the quiet where memories last.
