Life's Lyre

Description of a night, by a lonely heart...

Terrace and door steeped in silence

from the sky flows the river of desolation.

The moon's tragic tale of light

immersed in the dust of highways.

Semi-darkness in the chambers of night and

the melody of life's lyre played out

in faint, elegiac strains...

Profound symbolism and imagery signifying such loneliness. Your poem shows more color and light than I actually expected to see at first. It carry's a tune with a fine light--thanks to your awesome use of words and rhythm. Well written piece. :)
