The Saddest Song for the Saddest Day



Your musical note
-struck-
a
low ebb

and all of a sudden,

the tears came
flooding
out of
this dam.


The saddest note 
waited
so long
to be heard,

by 
you and me,
and 
forgotten humanity,

for,
if we cannot 
handle our sadness,
we will not be able to
handle our happiness. 

Slipping through our fingers,
we die
slowly.


Drifting away 
from the music
that is playing
in the ballroom of our lives.

Time for a new ballroom,

a new song,

a new dance.

A high musical note.
