A pale, crisp evening air
resonates through the streets
upon a quiet town in darkend flight
the failing cries come.
Hearts pound heavy, silently
wishing that the sun would show
only to have light the last
angered thoughts of rapture.
Can you imagine the beating
that you can take, when life
is supposed to be precious
but the pain can be kept.
The tears cannot wash the
thoughts of why, only add to
the misery of lasting cuts
deep within the souls tomb.
So shaken with thought, at last
a few moments of clarity,
a wry smile to the face
and of to the wind once again.

giving this a bump..there are lines in it that have their own seperate voice.

"two hearts will build the foundation for one point of light
a duet done with passion"

excerpt from "I Love You"
