Digression: A Tragey Unfolds

A heavy heart he holds
A story of pain untold
A mess of blood and veins
Caused by a tragedy within

Events have come to past
Too soon beyond his grasp
Mayhap he would turn Time back
Sorrowful, eloquent words he lack

"Encore!" the audience cries
Replay that tragedy
Eternity be damned
Before his very eyes
