Midnight Serenade

not sure about the title. but its a bit different than usual for me.

 

Playing a midnight serenade

In this starry moonlit night

So black as my heart

As it aches for you tonight

 

Playing so softly

As I'm wishing for you near

Hoping to hear your sweet words

Whispering tenderly in my ear

 

I once knew the light

Being close to you

Now while everyone sleeps

I'm awake in the darkest blue.

 

You are my ghost, living within me

In the silence of the mist

Lingering in my mind and heart

The only place where you now exist.

 

Playing this sad tune,

The harmonic sorrow of my heart

I wait, and play only for you

For death we do depart.

Very vivid and I can feel the sorrow and pain. The night adds to the mystery and feeling....

Wonderful, sensitive, softly written, good build up, full of emotion, in touch with your own feelings and everyone mourning over lost love.
One of the most empathic poems I've ever read.

What a powerful write, wonderfully done and crafted. Your words are mesmorizing. Great job!

[Forest Green]

The mysteries of inspiration are framed nicely by the lines of your poem. Very reassuring throughout, pressing back the curtains of uncertainty gently and artfully.

Good work.

Sad and beautiful, this a heartbreaking piece. You've used such great images and your use of vocab really brings it all together.
