Echo

 

Deep within its depths

it strikes you like a chord

 

An aria known only to you

 

You follow along your path

searching

for something to connect with

 

Another soul

binds you

until you break free

 

You are not like the others

They do not understand

 

You

 

are alone

feel the void

expand with every breath

 

And yet you go on

loving your own voice

Hi Francine,I am itching to be a Philistine (no, I AM a Philistine) I am itching to release my Inner Philistine to say: "I DO love my own voice" but I won't. Sorry I pushed off and left kind comments hanging. Mea crappa. A very etherial concept. Not easy for my kind of bloke.
But I sense a ripple in the Force. Bon!

Hi Francine, I like the way you have managed to get a feeling of disconnection in this work. A good interpretation of the subject matter.

And I love your voice too Francine - am so glad to have you back - WOL wouldn't be WOL without you!

I love this. Love the title and the ideas and the disconnected structure you have used - it really goes well with what you are expressing.

I also like the paradoxes - the appreciation of self within all of the loneliness.

You
are alone
feel the void
expand with every breath
And yet you go on
loving your own voice

Beautiful x
