"... How dreary to be somebody-- How public like a frog;
To tell one's name; the livelong June-- To an admiring bog"
-Emily Dickinson


A melody fills the space
not a drop left empty.
Melancholy.
Sweet yet sour.
It blurs and fades...
Just as watercolors after a rain.
Twists and turns.
Falls.
But always returns by my side.
Beautiful joy.
Beautiful sadness.
A melody fills the space,
never a drop left empty.

Really like it. Very deep.
