Happening 78 Ear Candy

one
     by one
     this harmnic 
song depletes..
a
candle extinguished
the sound
              lessens..
notes
     take
          their
               leave..
a tear
      follows
         each tear
          of
             parting

inspired by Haydn's Farewell symphony clip
