Speak Not of Joy

by Melina Raven Maness Diebold

With open eyes I dream
Vain unending memories
flooding, passing
through my mind
Like soldiers, bravely marching on

The pity, the pain
this sorrow I feel for myslef
is merciless

The part of me
lost forever to eternal past
unerasable
unresolvable
Speak Not of bliss
Never tell me of your happiness
Never tell me of your joy
Tell only of the dreary things
the depraved, depressing things

They complete me
