Eurydice (Free verse) by amb12203
Singing a tune
To the ghostly doom
He thinks that he can save me.
I follow his light
Knowing full well that night
Could never quite release me.
He pads up the stairs
With his tune and the air
growing crisper as I follow.
His words like a knife
Singing softly of life
That we'll share in the bright tomorrow.
And I want to believe,
But instead I just grieve
And my throat fills up with sorrow.
Then he turns back to me
For a moment to see
The final result of his song.
I don't know if he heard
My last line of words
I love you, let go, I am gone.
