Their chagrin is not part of me

[Omar Khalifah]

They obligate their woebegoneness on me,
Their long -term melancholiness,
So I lower my tiptoeing,
Quit the Quaintness
Of the moon and
Parch to sleep.
But

Their chagrin is not part of me,Swaddling
 through their eyes' brows,They frown-
Cutting me with their tarry eyes,
Coating my heart with ice

But its icicles thaw in one
Accidental Snap of light,
The solid liquidates,
Drop by drop,
Till it's all
Dried.

Still no critiques from you. Wondering if you ever will contribute to your time here.

This, unfortunately, makes little sense to me.

 

Could be -

 

They obligate me with their woebegone long term melanchology.
