All Poetry

Melancholia.

Heed the echos of a heartache,
anguished sear of reverie.
Feel its scalp bleed down her face,
scathing tears of memories.
See the eyes that once freely smiled
fading with defeat.
As silent fields in which she lies
drift away with night’s conceit.

  1. This is absolutely beautiful, Phoebe. Ah, melancholia. Those last 2 lines really reverb and buzz for me. Thank you for writing this. 🙂

  2. We all find ourselves on a rocky road at times…..our hope is to come to a smoother spot in the road and a new direction perhaps. I hope you find yours….

    Hugs, Pam
