The Heart Chronicles

➳ Tainted Melody

The melody which flowed from your fingers

Has never left my mind

It is always resonating, always reminding,

Though I have forgotten the notes,

I recall the nights

In which you played for me a beautiful melody

A melody too enchanting to have a harmony

Though you did told me that I am the harmony,

I couldn't imagine being a part of such a captivating sweetness...

Then the notes stopped, and the addicting taste

Had turned bitter

Anything resembling the enamoring beauty

Made my heart shatter and grow colder

It wasn't until a year ago that I didn't respond with such hatred

To beautiful melodies

Coincidentally, it was also then when I heard that lively tune again

The one you used to call "a metaphor for our lives"

I remember freezing in my place

And the memories began to play before my eyes

I can now play the haunting piece,

But not with the beauty you possess

I guess some melodies will always be left tainted

for no amount of flowing notes 

would be able to restore what we had
