...A blue aurora full of brume, an atrabilious expression of grief A haunting sight watched by the moon, sheltered by the cobalt reef An arrantly perfidious man, where arrogance lies beneath Distressing her and even then, apologies never escape his teeth... ‘Tis a broken song to sing, a bleak melody to ponder The aching loneliness does bring, wounds not healing any longer Tune flows out like streams of blood, lyrics sharp and somber A poet’s hurt such as a flood, waves crashing ever stronger Teardrops of the mighty flood, have now trickled to a river Feet treading through the layers of mud, in their failing feat they quiver A siren weeping ripples here, mourning love you refused to give her That plangent song caresses ears, touch chilling as a shiver Her throat burns yet she goes on, soft enough to make the earth quake The very ground you step upon, rumbling with her tragic ache How do you turn a blind eye, she’s been torn by your mistake Her very soul does cry, while you can hardly even shake She exonerates all you have done, furthermore she does beseech Perhaps she’s lost but you’ve not won, alas her heart you shall not reach A precious gem amidst the coal, enchanting those who wander near The scene is stirring as a whole, dulling any calm presence here A storm has passed tonight, though you still do not repent Siren sings beneath blue moonlight, of the love she does resent A lullaby to make you tremble, deep beneath the twisted torment No longer shall she dissemble, all but you shatter at the poet’s lament

Poet's Lament *rewrite*
...A blue aurora full of brume, an atrabilious expression of grief A haunting sight watched by the moon, sheltered by the cobalt reef An arrantly perfidious man, where arrogance lies beneath Distressing her and even then, apologies never escape his teeth... ‘Tis a broken song to sing, a bleak melody to ponder The aching loneliness does bring, wounds not healing any longer Tune flows out like streams of blood, lyrics sharp and somber A poet’s hurt such as a flood, waves crashing ever stronger Teardrops of the mighty flood, have now trickled to a river Feet treading through the layers of mud, in their failing feat they quiver A siren weeping ripples here, mourning love you refused to give her That plangent song caresses ears, touch chilling as a shiver Her throat burns yet she goes on, soft enough to make the earth quake The very ground you step upon, rumbling with her tragic ache How do you turn a blind eye, she’s been torn by your mistake Her very soul does cry, while you can hardly even shake She exonerates all you have done, furthermore she does beseech Perhaps she’s lost but you’ve not won, alas her heart you shall not reach A precious gem amidst the coal, enchanting those who wander near The scene is stirring as a whole, dulling any calm presence here A storm has passed tonight, though you still do not repent Siren sings beneath blue moonlight, of the love she does resent A lullaby to make you tremble, deep beneath the twisted torment No longer shall she dissemble, all but you shatter at the poet’s lament
