Poetry: Voices

YOUR VOICE

Breathlessly,
I wait to hear the sound of your voice
In the morning.
Its familiar timbre wraps around me
Like a beautiful melody;
It makes me smile with that magical tone
That can be soft and loving in a whisper,
Droll in a humorous moment,
Passionate during lovemaking,
And convincing with a lesson.
Your voice is extraordinary.
It starts my day off brightly,
By putting music in my heart and step.
It infuses me with joy at its unexpected appearance
Around a corner, or in a corridor;
For you will soon follow.
Your voice comforts me when I'm sad.
And from across the miles
Its beauty resounds in my memory
Making loneliness bearable.
If I could write a song whose melody could express
All the wonder and joy of life itself,
It would sound like your voice.

    I heard a voice the other day,
    I could not hear, what it had to say

    I rushed, never stopping
    With mindless words, in voice,

    The Day The Voices Died

    I choke on my past
    turn and desperately look to the future
    a blank void
    a sea of nothingness.
    No hints

    by Sheridan Smith

    These voices in my head, telling me to do things that are not me.
    These voices in my head are confusing.
    Should I listen to
