Day 23: Sound/Song/Saying

 

Today we have to write a poem to incorporate some sound, a saying, or a song lyric. 

I chose a song, one that's been in my head lately:

 '...And you shone so damn brightly,
and all that you awoke inside me
is dancing in the dark without a song...'.
                                                 ~Stoney 'We Belonged'


Legacy

Love lingers, lasts, 
long after it's left. 
It's song cannot be unsung,
melody unheard
or heart 
that has learned to sing
suddenly be silent.

Memory flares feeling
into fanfare. Sparks
surge outward. 
Love leaves
its legacy
of light.
