Melancholia

  Meeting your ethereal gaze I ponder, Those beads encompass all that is blue.  Lost in chasms of depths untold, A flicker of passion, letting miles unfold of rue. My only moon in constellations of stars, We come from horizons of dusks afar, You screamed out that night, but I did not hark Now I exist in realms of eternal dark. Took many flowers more, just never felt right, But in sorrow and pain, comes dark before light, If only I had known, you would always be in sight, If only you had known of my plight.....

                                                                                I left the phone dangling off the hook By those who once loved me, I am called a crook, Ran back home and the doors were locked, In search of their benevolence, I looked, I look. Informed my dearest love of my return, The loathing in her words, all I could discern, They say love and flowers bloom when cherished, I watered every day, yet not a sliver of concern. Such lies the cruel circumstance, Thusly charged is the scroll, Whether by destiny or by happenstance, I face the wrath of the heavens alone.
