Oblivion

the music fills the room with the sounds of sadness and prosperity like it is its last chance to play to strain for a melody before it reaches a breaking point and dies out until it is granted permission to play one last tune much simpler than this and the voices fill the void with the sounds of serenity and desperation in an attempt to be heard but overcome by gusts of wind and flurries of snow before they fade out because they can no longer be heard and the words sound from the pages full of significance and life pleading to be heard but overcome by the tearing of pages ripping over and over until there are no more pages to be torn and the music and the voices and the words have gone down down down into a hole of oblivion until there is nowhere nowhere nowhere left for them to go.

Eva F,, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@

I really enjoyed this and I think I know this feeling. Love the music analogy and life and love often follow these same melodies, waiting for an opportunity to sing.
