Love Poem: Voices

Voices

She hit me hard
Quick sharp blow
The harp of a bard
Can't fix this song
For this melody
I can not sing along

The sound echos through my brain
Driving me insane
I want to go to sleep
And never wake up
Because these voices in my head
Just will not shut up

Love can be summarized as pain
But at the same time it makes you sane
You feel great
At the moment
But in reality
You get hurt
My love and blood
It stabs my very soul
In my heart she will never die
As the Seraphs in heaven cry
My pain overflows out
As i scream and shout


The sound echos through my brain
Driving me insane
I want to go to sleep
And never wake up
Because these voices in my head
Just will not shut up

One day, I'll move on
One day, I shall stand strong
But on this very moment i feel weak
My tears pour out
As I lay and weep
She meant so, so much
But her heart was out of touch
I tried to hold her hand
As we were in the spot
But for her it meant nothing
Not even a drop
For her tears are only shed for him
But she is in a situation
She just can not win
So with every song
That I sing along
She runs through my head
And my world is now
Just dead


The sound echos through my brain
Driving me insane
I want to go to sleep
And never wake up
Because these voices in my head
Just will not shut up

As the pain fades away
I think back to the day
When I had it all
In my hand, but I let it go
I let it fall
In that moment I wanted to stall
Because it made me oh so happy
But it didn't last long
In that moment I sang a song
One with which she sang along
And in the moment
I felt tall
I felt as if I would never fall

I sang this song
But she never sang along
Two hearts bound together by hands
Forever I will be her fan
We can last forever
Don't you see?
I felt something
That day
In your hand
