The edge of gray

Another season of grief
I witness,
nearing the edge
of silence,
as the churchyard
reverberates
with melody ,
so deathly still,

Turning the pages , I sit
all daunted lest I uncover
some sanguine phrases next.
As the shadows of
ivory lamps glows,
the light comes and passes on ,
the flame no longer
dances to the song of wind,
nor it will.

- 00:00,
It's finally time:

The needle is dropping,
It's time to let go O monsieur
of a magniloquent trailing
shade of red,

The ashes I don't fear my love,
it's the gray look that I dread.
