Simple Melodies

By Spiritus_Frumenti

The wind is my violin,
Playing gently the notes of my despair
The movements of my thoughts
The rhythmn section of my heart

Echoing far into my soul is life's motif
Reverberating an engulfing sadness without composition
Without lines in which to read or write upon

My spirit dances subtly to the sounds of the past
Memories belonging to something deeper
A song heard only as a distant whisper
Moments residing in a ballad -
that has all eternity to cry

Obscure and within reach,
The music compiled through life seems disharmonic
Lacking structure -
though it feels purposely hurtful...
