Young Words From An Old Heart - 10. Chapter 10: Unheard

Unheard

by bugeye

A hidden thing

But it turns my head

Unheard music

Bright as it is

Not lost

Just out of mind

Almost

Sometimes

And not a secret, either

It had it's day

Or two or three

What else to do with it?

It will not cease

It will not depart

It will not

Until I die

A companion now

Shadow light

Whispering

Always

This is best

　

A wild thing

Tame as flame

Ready to engulf

All those lies

Told to soothe the soul

No promise of passion

But cold fire

That takes

And never consumes

Meaningless and endless

But for

That unheard music

That thrills

Calling

To disparate desire

To inspire desperate

Joy

　

One moment nothing

Just ordinary

Then walks everything

And sings

With every step

That unheard music

Lifting

Up

That burden

Oh, to be a duet

And touch with every siren sigh

Together

The music is heard

Merging, gasping, joining

Eclipsing the limit of this

My lonely soul

　

　

I know not what I am talking about

What I am talking about

Knows me

I am talking about

Talking about

About

...

Yes, that

That unheard music

Is all I have ever known
