Melancholy Melody

The muisc of a broken heart

Melancholy Melody

By jack

 

Music stands alone the thief
Below thy windowed heart
In melodies of sad belief
From in thy world depart

O’er the lost beneath a moon
Of memory formed light
A brisk wind lingers wayward tune
The sound you hear this night

A symphony O’ long goodbyes
The orchestra to play
Found as one this stanza’d cry
Doth cast thy love away

Music sings the sorrowed themes
O’ broken heart's bewildered dreams

A sad but beautiful melody is this poem.

"A symphony O’ long goodbyes
The orchestra to play
Found as one this stanza’d cry
Doth cast thy love away" - Just so full of love's tragedy and pathos.
Thanks for sharing this poem Jack. I loved it.

Music,
it runs instead of blood in my veins
it's the drug i inhale within each moment
the life i long to live
Music,
Music,
the powerful tunes of an old piano!
the heart breaking melodies that sweep your heart
the enchanting Guitar strings
that send you to a whole other world of your own pleasure!
the sad violin, that makes you involantarly cry
oh the chello, oh the music so devine
it's the closest thing to magic!
Music
i really love your poem, and get your point :)
it just breaks my heart that most people CAN'T appreciate it, not that they DON'T they just Can't!
