Melody

• Artist: Quinavere
• Description: i feel soo alone here! with my Father sick again in the hospital im stuck alone all day in the house, for my mother is afraid to leave his bed side. im grown up now but all im reduced to the scared little girl wishing to see her parents in the middle of the night. all i have is my music box, the one that my mother would sing with to help me sleep. yet im still afraid of the things i cant control..

Light seeps in from under the door.
A melody plays, one she's heard before.
Tears fall softly but who will care?
As a lonely writer leaves her soul bare.
Unseen and unheard, hidden from light.
Remaining at the bottom while others gain height.
Footsteps patter in the halls of her mind.
Breaking down barriers the demons hide behind.
Silence so loud you can hear her heart break.
Setting dreams afloat in the oceans' wake.
Heartache and pain and pleasure combine.
As dreams and reality slowly intertwine.
Shadows cloud the happiness she wants to feel.
Scars run deep and none of them heal.
Blood racing fast and pounding in her ears.
It finds no escape as she cries crimson tears.
The light slowly fades from under the door.
But the melody plays just like before.

wow. Reading your poem made me incredibly scared. You have an amazing talent to portray what you feel and STILL make it rhyme. I hope everything is ok with you and your father.
