I’m haunted by her Whispered words, Her hair, her face She’s a shadow from The darkness, A lady born of mystery With a look and Twist of her slender wrist, I am mesmerized Within her soul Can’t you hear her now? She calls to us all Upon a barren ledge, Overlooking the endless sea I am not the only one Who has come this way And I know that, I am not the last To look upon Those colorless eyes, And into a heart that knows not The consequences of Emotional greed To satisfy the tell-tale Signs of humanity In decline I, in almost all certainty, Should have recognized All the warnings Before I stopped To listen to her song Now, finally, I think I am in love |

I've read this one over and over... and can't say that I really get the "story". But having read it aloud, had to tell you how beautifully these words are coupled together. Simply vocally musical. I will continue to disect this one and get back to you. Intriguing, to say the least. |

JML~ Whimsically lovely. My desire would be that we've all heard her song at one time or another. You just sang it beautifully. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |
