6 To 8- Melody of Sadness

An aria of spiritual apathy is flowing in my reverie of woe.
I’ve endured  g r i e f  beyond the euphony of a metered tune and
                        am lost inside harmony’s lyrical chorus.
Ballads of verses contain my  o b s c u r e  existence, 
   and I am forever heartbroken from the noise of a detestable vocalist. 
Despondent and desolated, my ears bleed for chanting rhythm of love,
               but I am  s i n k i n g, drowning in a sea of wounded wretchedness. 
I embrace this MELODY OF SADNESS, forgotten...yet heard in misery’s refrain.
