Melody

this is a poem i wrote where Kallen is trying to remember her borhter. she is thinking really hard as she holds the little music box he gave her.

I cradled it in my hand, the gift you gave to me.

I'll treasure it forever, thinking of your warmth all those cold nights,

the kisses you placed on my forehead as I would drift off in to a peaceful dream.

What had happened once I closed my eyes?

the music box you gave to me still rings in my ear as

I tried not to remember your screams and cries.

Looking at the wall only seeing your shadow

the Ballerina turns slowly and music sings to me.

What happened?

You told me to never cry, to grow up

When I told you my fears and my dreams;

to listen to the chimes of the only thing that kept me safe from the world.

I'll pull it close to my chest,

tears streaking my cheeks

I try to listen to the music that diminished years ago.

I'll wind that little key

praying to hear that music that you sung for me.
