a voice beyond the door |

speaking siren sounds with velvet voice so sweet she lay nestled in the security of watching eyes— late at night we three talked a friend, myself, and the voice beyond the door with silken speech, I crafted words that worked their auditory charm and permeated the curtain placed upon that door of oaken words that night as locks did double duty and kept our souls apart soon, a connection made, the voice beyond the door chose not my friend, and he did leave that voice to only me—we talked and laughed and talked, eyes never meeting, never knowing one another and the next day we left and went our ways to boundaries drawn by lines distanced by the miles we never spoke again and that door is but a memory… alas, we’ll never meet, never know, never…, but then I fear I hear another voice, a voice beyond the door [This message has been edited by steavenr (02-16-2007 01:27 AM).] |

This is a striking write...brought many thoughts swirling to me. You captured, for me, the barriers we all place around what is most precious and sensitive to us. Well written. |
