A haunting melody

A haunting melody

she sat quietly in the darkness not a sound
her slow sweet melody flowed like acid rain
in the shadows, from reality she would hide
and in the shadows, waits her demon, taking his time abide

as the moon rose he would watch like a hound
in the stillness, her melody would hide his pain
as he stared unseen into her beautiful eyes
no longer were there limits, truths, nor lies

as she sat and sang to the unseen monster called man
unknowingly, she would whisper into the darkness for his name
he saw himself as a fool or a coward, never daring to approach
no matter the hours infront of a mirror, as he would coach

as the moon rose during the cold dark night and
he would just sit and listen to her forever sing
time seemed to stand still, nothing was more important
often he thought still, she, his medicine so very potent

as the dawn crept into the nightly sky
he would hum her tune as he wandered home
his body so tired, his mind so fresh and young
sometimes he would just sit and watch the morning sun

sometimes he would feel as if he would die
still he wanders and listens in the dark alone
still he hums her haunting magical tune
still he tells himself "you will be mine soon"

Awesome poem...yeah I hate these 50 character comment things haha.

Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
