One Last Chord

A poem about betrayal using the metaphor of music.

Struck so perfectly

Resounding so fully

That every note on the way there

Reveals its importance

And revels in the light

Nothing spectacular

Not in that sense, anyway

Just the

General conclusion

Of your arms slipping sround me

Giving me one last

False

Hope

And then dropping out of sight

But I can still hear the music now...
