Sweet Song Silenced

there was
a song
that sang
through the night
the clearest
of tone
notes that
took flight
sadness took
the music
it flew
like a bird
its voice
is now still
no more
to be heard

good bye sweet song
sweet song good night

"It is like looking for a blizzard in a glass snowball. Unless you shake it up not one flake will fly."

ohhh
I need some music for the long nights...
And I'm not much of one for change.
made me sigh but very enjoyed

Always, Alyssa
