I'm a voice,
not an echo.
Everybody around me is letting go
of what they love
to please
their friends
family
society.
Hollow beings
cover the world like
broken,
alabaster shells
trying to change their shapes,
to wedge themselves into the puzzle.
I am a voice,
not an echo.

A heat so intense,
it melted my heart.
When we touched, it was sweltering.
The sun from within set you apart.
You freed me from my flouresent prison.
Your eyes casting golden ray.
Melting under your touch.
I'm entranced by everything you say.

Today I let the sun wake me up,
it's soft caress warm upon my face.
It was the last dawn of the year,
and I was still trying to find my way,
but looking out at all the happiness,
I searched for so urgently,
I fell into ease,
because I realized
all I was searching for,
was me.

;
Yesterday,
while we were sitting by the lake,
the waves pounded the shore with soft tremours,
your twinkling laugh filled the air,
then I heard something more.
A poem,
I heard it so distinctly,
it flowed through my mind as I mulled over
the sheer rhythmn of it.
Soon,
I found myself singing it.
You looked at me as if I were
insane.
Harmonizing all by myself,
giggling like
the happiest fool on earth.
You drew me to my feet and walked me home.
With a smile,
I brandished my paper and pencil to capture the melody.
Whilst sitting down
I realized
that I couldn't remember
a
single
word
of it
.
