David's Poetry

Sonata

Absent to a sense
Given with no volition
Only at my own expense
Presented with ambition

Pouring in affections
An unrecognizable melody
Riddled with imperfections
Contained in a memory

Imagined flawlessly
A perfect sentiment
It's envisioned with no apology
Fully in contentment

Expressively distorted
Presented with diffidence
Rejected and contorted
The possibility of magnificence

Relinquished and dismissed
Mixed into a choked scream
A ballad left to persist
An aria of lost esteem

A tone that's haunting
Isolated with afflicted avidity
Inept and lacking
Forsaken with a humility

A nostalgia anxiety
Evolved into a chimera
In a feeble dream of satiety
Illusions of a perpetual sonata
