Sad Songs




Sweetest songs
Sung by heavens
Are born to sad parents
Whom mirth has denounced
And are fostered by gloom
They nurture on their fear,
Drinking their warm tears
Stranger becomes the light
With hope and smile, in arms
Alas! But she fails to sear, and
Carrying away her children
She knocks on another door
And those dark closed songs
Flowing from the charming tongue
Of demons and beautiful angels
Lull your fleeting joy
To stir your deepest thought
And skim your darkest past
Brushing away the laded dust
They touch the soreness
Of your heart!

  1. Sad songs really do touch us more than happy songs do don't they? I think it's because, like you said, they touch the soreness of our heart. Well put!
