Untitled

Mercury passed in front of the sun today...
The obstinate clouds blocked my view...
Ghosts have lost their believability... 
Sadness knocks right on cue...
The lyrics have lost their meaning... 
The food has lost it's taste...
The cemetery is empty...
And time is but a waste...
I leave my cigarette burning as I close the lonely door...
The music is still softy playing; but another sad song I can't endure...
