DIRGE ON ON DELIGHT (An Original Poetry)
Image Source; Dirge on delight 🎸 🎺
The tambourines and the snippets,
singing sweet serenades,
laden with terse tears,
our heart is reeling with agony,
but which ear delight to listen?
shall we smile for the winter?
and wail for the summer?
eating pretence like pills
We are singing dirge on delight,
wearing the comely faces,
but sunken within as a withering flower,
these thistles a testament of our tales,
of the time spent in stormy gales,
and the times tainted in grief,
we want to wail like a whale,
express our pain on a pippet,
dancing to the agony's melody.
They want us to gleam,
like a chrysanthemum in the sunset
beam beautifully like a bubbly bulb,
but we want to writhe like pythons,
slithering in our own mire,
drunken in tragedy,
and then sing salient songs,
till our voice becomes croaked,
and the candle is burnt away,
Dirge on delight,
a tragi-comedy we are birthed in,
we're cursed with a cause,
to sail on a sea of our tears
riding round life's tide
like a raving crow on the eve of death
the guitars are yearning to tingle,
tricking sonnets out of it's box
till our ears can no longer listen,
