The Tune She Played

There was sadness in the tune she played. Was she lost, or perhaps afraid? Perhaps I should have longer stayed. Would that have any difference made? The leaving, though, cut like a blade-- And that's a pain I'd gladly trade. So am I lost, or perhaps afraid? Of this I am, the tune she played. --Mel

Thanks Cas. Fked up one line--one too many syllables. You know me, the meter man. Guess I'll edit. Hey, what was that song about angels--who sang it? I forgot. '14 was a beating, my dear. Hope '15 is better. Guess we'll see. Hope you're well and happy. xo
