From the Strangled Muse
Words start flowing
shortly before the tears
life looks up for a moment
and a smile spreads
a sudden urge to dance in the rain
an urge to sit alone
the feeling of the pen against paper
the nessiccity of the prose
running from the imaginary
doubting the real
everything turns gray
turns purple
life makes sense
then falls apart
when goverened
by the strangled muse
sight is only a suggestion
only the sad songs play in our ears
life and love become together
and without one, we live in fear
a voice inside that keeps singing
even when our voice is long gone
our heart beat in rythym to our footsteps
our minds in sync with the world
everything goes back to you
when I listen to the stangled muse
