The first time I sang a love song

The first time I sang a love song
Was not in that typical setting of a full moon night
With flowy Victorian gowns and black bows
Dominating a scene by the lake
Just a normal day out in the woods
When the dried leaves crunched with my steps
And I knew no one was there
To hear me croon a futile song
Learnt from an orphaned child
Who knew nothing more than the song
To sing to his little siblings when
He had to make them sleep without a meal
And as I sat pitching high and low
I could feel my heart crave
For something more than just the abstraction
Of a futile song escaping my mouth
