Ballad of the lonely heartsA Poem by DrinnokPoem about lonliness and how it seems to only get worse. How the lonely ones never seem to find one another, how they can't seem to find Lonely Hearts St.A Ballad for the Lonely Dead Whiskey bottles clang in my wake Desolute hopes, derelict dreams each a link So many years clawing at the walls of a darkened abyss Crimson tears dribble down cold black stone Hear the suffering so silent in its agitation Cataclysimic catastrophe, cavilcade of calamity Every attempt to find the worth while futile Every pace for peace problamatic! Where do lonely hearts dine on a saturday night? Who do they dream of while the needle translates tones of blue? What dreams are left for those who journey alone? Just ask any old grave covered in lonesome decay Hopeless romantic heart is but shattered stained glass Each piece a lamentation Each color a hope, a dream, once vibrant, ordained in some way Each poem an attempt to discover, an attempt to redeem Where do lonely hearts dine on a saturday night? Who do they dream of while the stars burn bright? Lamentations, ballads ring out, hear the beauty, the fear, the doubt Mournful are the devices that distill the dreams of the sovereign stargazer The Whippoorwill sings tonight, where the lonely hearts dine on a Saturday night. © 2014 Drinnok |
