Description
With the cynicism and bitterness
Came the sickly sweet breath
Of realization.

Somewhere softly a butterfly sang
And all through the dandelion petals it rang
Like the fiery gates themselves were ajar.

Somewhere droned the heart wrenching tune
Hoping for the muted starlight of June
Instead, it danced through stinging frost and silence.

Anywhere searched the sweet melody
For peace and light and harmony
Yet it collapsed into callused, clammy hands by mistake.

Everywhere went the rasping poison hold
And the tender hymn was suffocated in the cold
It carried on as a simple whisper in the resonating opacity.

Here arose a solicitous soul
Radiating his warmth through the merciless cold;
He carried the melody to safety.

He carried the melody home.
