Melancholy Morning

Topic: Sad Poetry


Contributed By: TheNugget

The persistent, bullying rays
of a callous, morning sun
light up the remnants of excavated dreams;
memories now dusted down and displayed
in ink-stained cases of self-reproach:
exhibits for the museum of melancholy.

The mind is a cache of indelible thoughts;
those buried the deepest
rise with the greatest anguish.

In his pensive haze of reflection,
he understands:
life is but the ephemeral, chaotic
flight of a dying butterfly,
carried on the careless breeze of destiny
to the alluring gates of pain-free eternity.
