Cathedral of Sorrow

– NoeticNonsense

In the cathedral of sorrow-

the heart aches,
broken by candlelit memories.

The mind, a prisoner,
trapped in Plato's cave.

Echoes of truth
whisper from the core.

Haunting denial passes
back and forth on the wall.

A shadowy figure plays
an organ of bone,
leaving frost on the ribs.

The bell looks down
but offers no comfort.

No audience remains—
but the dead

    Familiar these words is it deja vu or a rewrite or just common feelings? Nicely written
