Hauntings

Haunting melodies rise cold,
 swooping in, 
  entwining around the soul,
  squeezing tight,
the heart's inner whole;

breathless breathing soft,
 into whispered fears and fright,
  just a melody traveling 
  in the darker shadowed light,
swirling, beneath the clouded moon of night;

stirred achings, 
 echoes that escape their confines,
 repetitious venerations,
 memories of time,
streams and rivers of the blanketed mind;

spectred semblance,
 of an unseen presence
  lonely familiar fears omnipresent
  cast upon the waters, 
in obsolescence;

let it flow, in and out,
  life's evanescence
  ghosts with hollow music,
  melodic notes, giving in, 
silent acquiescence.
