Sympathy of Voices [Nove Otto]

by HOLLYWOODxBANGBANG   Aug 29, 2007


Your name is pounding through my veins.
Holding on with all that remains...
Tumbling over all the good-bye`s...
Is my broken heart - still beating:
Through the memories repeating;
Of the yesteryears and their lies.
Your picture talks to me at night:
Sympathy of voices, and fright -
For the one who shines in your eyes.

    Beautiful, this was so sweet and sad, and it had really good flow. but it was also sorta short and that made it feel incomplete somehow.
