Melodies

The devious angelical mind,

Supersedes them all.

He is the player, he is the audience,

Of melodies from time bygone.

He orchestrates these memories, eerily delicate,

Each note symbolising a word.

A word said, a word heard, a word held back.

And each tune, symbolising a person.

Someone lost, whom the world has forgotten;

Someone found, who made you forget the world.

And when the silence sits on the throne of night,

These melodies come in an endless loop

Of happiness, of grief, of hope, of gratitude.

For the tunes of some masterpieces

Are lost forever, irredeemable.

But hiding beneath the dusty floorboards

Of a once inhabited house,

The dustcoated cassets still remain

With the voice just the same,

The sound just the same.
