Melody Options

[HolyMolyRavioli]

It's getting louder.

The exhausted melody
of our fading love.

Echoing... Echoing...

Again.
And again.
And again.
And again...

And I cannnot escape...
Need to escape...
There is no escape...
Will not escape...

Every restless night.
(I need you.)
Every shattered dream.
(I love you.)
Every broken lie.
(I'll never leave.)
Every wilted rose.
(Stay with me...)
Louder. Faster it plays.

And I can't seem to ignore it.
(I hate you.)
And I can never get away.
(I lied.)
And so I crawl to my death.
(You deserve to die.)
On the brink of insanity.
(You selfish bitch...)

Again.
Again.
Cannot escape.

The mournful melody
of our dying love.

It's too much to take.
(So what?)
Too much to handle.
I'm dying.
Again.
(I love you.)
Can't escape.
(I hate you.)

Falling...
(Can't escape.)
Falling to my death...
(I hope you die.)
For the painful melody
has taken over...
Suffocating...
(Again.)
Falling.
(Again.)
Dying.
(Again.)

...And the melody continues....




I'm not very good...

Ah, the utilization of repetition.
When it comes to poems like that, I love reading them fast.
