Lonely duet
I sing my lonesome song
Calling for someone else who knows these words
I used to be in a choir of voices
Many like mine
Now?
A Lonely soloist
Acapella in my solitude
Far and wide these lyrics travel
No one ever completes my duet
But that won't stop me from trying
The ghosts that muted the songs of many try and mimic my melody
Hoping to entice me to them
they will cut me open and tear me apart
Ignoring my cries and pleads as they carry on their experiments
Vivisected
Stripped of all emotion
They will steal my voice
My breath
Use me as a slave before I am thrown away
Useless
They rendered many speechless
But not me
I'll not be fooled
Their webs stole everyone away
Why I'm alone is them
Those ghosts laugh
Awful voices
Winey
Nothing important to say
I'll swim through this vast sea
alone
For however long I need
Before I find that one
That completes my harmony
