Never never will he know
what his voice does to me
He'd be amazed
(I think he would)
at the transform
key of "me"

He will never hear the notes
of my voice without emote
the simple yearning's purity--
desire---hardened within me.

He will never, never feel
the me in soft of melted steel...
I paint him in colors surreal
as if his soul was mine--I deal
the Tarot of his very soul...
I read the cards and I grow old.

I flip a coin
and think why not
what have I to lose
I've got
a life of blindness
striking cane--
just one night
I re-arrange
and strike the chord
I'll ring the bell
and damn my soul
eternal hell...
for one spark of vision, true...
Say it's so. I will hold you.

Wonderfully unique phrasing throughout Serenity ... I loved the verse above, very nicely written indeed!  

Best wishes,

do we ever really know what our voice or our presence does to anyone? I do know and will say, your words rarely fail to touch me.

nicely done my friend...nice indeed

Serenity~ As usual, your flow is impeccable.  This is beautiful Kay, it reached out and drew me in.

You write damn fine for a blind person...
and I could read your rhymes till I go blind.
