One voice cries out among thousands Can anyone hear? Does anyone care? His head turns, He's searching He feels her despair He can taste her fury, Her madness He tries desperately to find her To break through the masses that bind her Her volume is rising, climbing As he runs to her, flies to her, Races against time to her Monsterous thunder! Flash of light! "Oh my darling, my beloved!" So silent, so still He collapses by her side Blood turns to ice at the sight She is gone, lost in her plight He lowers his head One tear falls Then another, another, another Her face is wet, His tears on her eyes Which no longer see through his sorrow's disguise He's running, running, Away from this place Where she met her fate Where his love came too late And now I live In a world I call my own, It's always nice when no one's home.... *Lit |

Hey kids, thank you for your kind words. I honestly have no idea where this poem came from. I was just sitting in my English class last school year and my pen wrote it. But it left me with a creepy feeling, so I thought I'd share it w/ y'all. *~Meredith~* And now I live In a world I call my own, It's always nice when no one's home.... *Lit |

I really liked this poem. You did a wonderful job sometimes the greatest poem comes from nowhere. Jeanna "Poetry is the music of the souls, and above all, of great and feeling souls." ~Voltaire~ |
