Melodies of Sorrows

Over the chain bridge shadow overlays the light Danube is lazing underneath silence is drifting in fright You are standing on your tiring feet An eerie feeling hovers over your skin pathos pales the face pain mists the eyes The eyes, watery deep and swollen are roaming over the night sky, You are longing for your loved one suddenly to stop by Forced smiles sadden the moist air no joy, no happiness a cheerless affair I wish I could comfort you kiss your nifty lips, play with your silken hair, and breaking the surface of sufferings scoop out your agony and its tears.

This is deep and descriptive. I get a sense of betrayal from this poem. I like this very much, Nirode, SKAT

FANTASTIC TITLE AND THE POEM MATCHED THAT SO WELL. "The eyes, watery deep and swollen are roaming over the night sky, You are longing for your loved one suddenly to stop by" SOLID 7....
