my words seem to soar
when they find their way to you -
melancholy days

Whoa, I am left pondering this seeming contradiction. But I also noticed this homophone word play: My words seem to soar/My words seem too sore. Are we to see the soaring words as a negative or positive, if they leave us in melancholy days? Or, is it more that once they're set to the sky, the feeling is untethered and thus melancholic? Or, is the homophone reading supposed to be the true meaning, a soreness of words creating a day of melancholy, perhaps the answer from "you"? Fantastic writing.
