The Echo of Amber

A deep yearning, silent and strange,
Resonates within me for a sound unheard.
Sealed in amber, an ancient song, so vain,
Echo of ages that time has deterred.
Though never risen, it vibrates in mind,
The shadow of a chord, a song still enshrined.
Pure nostalgia for a time that is gone,
Eternal seal of a silent ‘why’.
