My Melancholy Melody

This song of mine
Is an intricate design
Spun by thoughts and dreams 
And as I sing this tune
All the stars swoon
With the moon herself
And she shines upon me
I drop on one knee
Looking up at the night sky
I wish I could fly
Soar towards the heavens above
Like a lost dove
I will wonder this earth
And for all that it is worth
I know that the wolrd won't change
A tear drips off my lip
And into the ocean below
A cry is heard from a roaming crow
In its beak is a Red-bellied Snake
It twists and turns trying to escape
But the crow has its feast
On the delectable dead beast
Cawing out
The bird gave a shout
Crying how content he was after his meal
His silhouette against the moon is so surreal
The night starlight is coming from afar
Like the early morning star
And all I see as far as my eye can reach
Is how the nightmares have succeeded to breach
They haunt me still
Slowly making their kill
I can feel myself slipping away
And this mind of mine is going a stray
So before I go completely insane
Let me say that I am in pain
And I wouldn't last much longer any way
With each lingering day
I find that I am wishing to come to an end
This body I am trapped in tries to mend
But for some reason, I refuse
Maybe I like walking in these shoes
And maybe I'd rather be crazy
Than go through my life so hazy
While I lie, looking up at the sky,
Thinking about my dwindling future
Should I sew my wounds up with suture?
Or leave them bleeding?
It's hard to believe that I started out a seedling
And now look where I am.
I am like a helpless lost lamp,
Besieged by hungry predators
An abandoned, weakling
Trying to survive the hostile world
My life going down in a twirl
The night is clear
I feel no fear
As I keep dreaming
The moonlight beaming
And soon the sun begins to rise
And its rays reach for the skies
Showering me with its blanket of affection
And on the water shines a reflection
Of the morning star so bright
I close these eyes in delight
I begin to come to reality
And all the mortality
In this world, and I know I don't want to add to it
Or even think to commit that crime
That nightmare that can end one's time 
A robbing starts to sing
And she spreads her wing
And take flight to the heavens in the sky
And I slowly get up with a sigh
Knowing I have to get back to the busy world that surrounds me
The rushing, and hustling, and carelessness in this world disagrees with me
I linger in the grass
Which glistens from the dew making it look like strands of glass
The air is warm and inviting
This mind still is fighting
Battling the thought of the future and past
Thinking if I will last
Because these contemplations keep eating at me
So hear this plea
Help me keep up with life
And all in this strife
So if one thing you remember about this thought 
This mind of mine is drawing taut
I trudge through the wet grass thinking
Wondering if anyone will ever realize how this world is sinking
And I dread going back to it
Waiting, just waiting for someone else to admit
To agree with me about these statements
Waiting always waiting....
