Melancholic Glory

From my diary: Introspection We are a kaleidoscope of broken things, Angels with clipped wings; Dyslexic writers, fallen knights. We are an army of crushed mights. We are the troubled therapist; An untuned symphony, But we burn with our melancholic glory. We are the comedian that finds it hard to smile, We are the dreamers in exile; A shy actor, an ugly butterfly. We are the colorblind painter splashing the night sky. We are the Beethovens and Van Goghs; The brightest and the most magnificent are we, Because we burn and burn forever in our melancholic glory -and we can't be tamed.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
