Ennui

Silent density has settled, 
Like an aural veil.
Ennui bores me with her hungry stare...
And I stare back.
Her contact is a barren performance.
A Goddess pulls at my strings, 
But I am music-less.
She will wait in blackness.
Vivacity will, again, pull tight in me, 
But until then, 
I will sit and submit to my mood.
