Oh Melancholy!

by Everlasting   Dec 19, 2018


Once
I was a happy fire
burning with desire,

I devoured the days
with no pain as my fuel.

Every activity I did
was sizzling hot!

Until you came along,
and with your drizzles of sadness
evaporated the happiness
that flared within me.

    Melancholy indeed. I was happy until I read this poem, Lucero...

    Seriously, though, I like this a lot and I like the contradiction of drizzle causing evaporation.

    I hope you are well,

    Ben
