Ghostly Melody Poem by Phil Soar

The melody played on in overtime
I hear it nightly all the while
A chilling melancholy tone
A dance inspired and lowly drone
The dance a waltz for two in love
A ghostly shadow casts its spell
Moving around the cellar well
Where once a lover met her fate
And fell into a watery hell
Her screams, no longer resonate
The song however plays till late
It haunts his soul and irks his mind
That melody plays on in overtime
