sounds

i hear things

i dont know where it comes from

or who or what creates these things i hear

these sounds crescendo to a fortress of acceptance

 

they sing sad songs

because that is what my mind holds dear

haunting melodies of sweet love gone sour

make my head sway with a sense of knowing

 

because these songs are my stories

and in my mind i dont need to cower

from a house singing dark melodies

i can arrange those tunes so others will know my pain

 

i hear things and yes i may sound crazzy

but keep quiet please

just for a moment

while i finish this song
