This Poem Is a Cut

Away, Melancholia
rhymless
life striken root

Away, Melancholia
you 
dandelion sun
terrace shadow
want of want

Melancholia,
gateless fable
withheld of word
of that unwalked path

Melancholia.
you are owed no
explaination,
have no spoken rath
but still
I walk through
your time
to tell your story,

I am sorry.
Leave me.
