Poem: Choice

This poem is inspired by the movie PHANTOM OF THE OPERA

There river flows in fading light
Little flickering glare glows on sight,
Mirror on the walls of the night
Creating a mystery in their mind.
Deep sounds arises from inside
A vast of music and love that collides.

Floating on the air---voices
Grieve, love and envy of many faces
Deep down through the core there races.
"Point of no return" one blazed
Choices he created---dazed
Melancholy cast the place.

"To Love him and for him to be slayed?
To choose me for him to be saved?"
Passions of enrage pondered
Floating words that sauntered
Choices that are never answered.
"Point of no return" again wandered.

Casting the mysteries created,
Over and over that hatred
Music that has been minded
Anger and envy enlightens
Trembling feelings driven
"Pitiful creature" dazed from heaven.

There river flows in fading light
Choosing the man for her own sight
Saving her Love from grieve upon
For she knows what's within her soul
For her love can't rival ant thing
As long as her heart will never stop to sing.

Angel of music she thought
Loving him for some reasons she sought.
Choosing him to save the other soul
For she loved the man who opened her heart
The man who left on grieve in a dart.
