Amadeus

Each night, I am deprived of sleep and rest

Three grueling weeks and I have just begun.

It started as a game, - now I’m obsessed,

The cards were dealt, - His will is left undone!

With every note, my Fate is drawing near

The melody resounds in her steps

Oh Melpomene, my heart is filled with fear.

I'm tangled in my notes, - my wicked webs.

I wove each line with Ariadne’s thread

My Requiem is due, I’ve lost my touch…

“Do take the music that my soul has bled

There’s more in me, - don’t hold it as a grudge!”
