serenading sorrow

 
welcome to my darkness make yourself at home
among the shattered remains of haunted memories
taste the sadness mixed with melancholy

sorrow will serenade your hurt
lilting pain from her tiny frame
your keening will entertain the many ghosts
should you join them

traveling over  us, visitors of past regrets
days I was less than
a slow dance is death
so many vagrant thoughts make their home here
they reside within my inner chambers

little notes of despair escape me
rising on the air in somber tones
to quell the desire, I seek
something of substance
to cure my ache

alas their is no medication
that will take my broken heart away
no place to visit, to erase

weep with me
tragic beauty that's more than skin deep
alters in my soul just to touch you
causes me wells of tears
they run down silently with out notice
shall we cry forever?

my passion for you is never quenched
my lusts never fulfilled
it is dark company I keep
my black instruments and I
