cold, floating on the edge of ice
a few degrees above a storm
courting the sleeplessness, inherent in me
the melancholy as i fall
covers the silence of the sound-bite
and i wander into my own thoughts
a riddle to my existence
a dark journey
as i fall into past-tense

So deep a melancholy ...
executed in accordance to the prompt; good personification here, and also sorrow-filled and alliterative in the lingering s-sounds.
Haunting poem.
Blessed be.
