At a distance, a harp begins to play Mellifluous tunes attempting to capture the heart astray Every single note pleasant to the ears Every note reviving the comatose fears Beautiful is the song as it is enchanting Through agile fingers, a masterpiece in the making But as the riveting sound cavorts the insipid walls Dispelled memories return like raging falls Strumming the strings equate a pronounced invitation Melodic verses transmogrify into proposed elation But the rhythm is alarmingly familiar Whose end averts from the spectacular The harps plays, the harp sings Obnoxious bells produce clamorous rings For the songs it sings are dulcet But the notes may be disguised bayonettes The comely harp will continue creating its art A fragile bubble vulnerable to approaching darts As the music invades every corner May the north be an inexorable commander

Warnings
It was selfish of her To leave. She needed the change; Had to move, Having been stuck so long She felt suppressed, And so depressed. She just needed to leave, But where could she start? He was easiest to leave, The most convenient to cut off; He didn't hold on, He didn't even try. She didn't know, Was she angry That it was easy for her to leave? Or that he didn't even try to stop it? But she had to leave, The reasons didn't matter, The semantics were moot, Whether he wanted her to, Or he didn't-- Whether she wanted to, Or she didn't want him to let her; Nothing mattered. It was truly selfish of her To leave. She had to fly And he made it easy for her To leave him behind...
