The Music I Heard Once

The music I heard once

Was louder than it is now

I can no longer distinguish

Pained cries from shouts of joy

Perhaps my ears are deaf

Or the interference too great

Still the order I remember

Has given way to discord

And while running wild was exciting

It was so only for a moment

Fleeting as a note

Leaving an even more transparent impression

The music I recall

Was different than it is now

For the new makes the old seem older than it is

To think from that

We grew into a new age

Suggests that ages past

Were not enough for adventuring souls

For stars too bright to be concealed

In a dark but beauteous night

We will paste upon the curled pages words

Like charming and romantic and sentimental

Forgetting that charming is witchcraft

Romantic is love

And sentiment is what makes us human
