A Song For The Poet
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Alone, The Poet writes his words
Emotions of his heart
Leaking from an injured soul

Alone, The Poet writes the verse
Singing to the heart
A heart that never heeds his words

In hope, The Poet pens the chorus
For his thoughts to be heard
For his mind to be set at peace

In hope, The Poet pens his thoughts
So his voiceless voice
May once, yet be finally heard

In seclusion, The Poet remains from the world
Watching the love he cant have
Slowly go drifting by

In seclusion, The Poet hides from her eye’s
Gazing out to the sea
The tides of time, Slowly washing by

SOLO
SOLO 2

Alone, The Poet describes his heart
His voice never speaking
Her ears never hearing

Alone, The Poet pens his soul
Perfection
His ultimate goal

Dreaming, The Poet is finally done
The masterpiece of life
One so tirelessly built

Dreaming, The Poet smiles
In hopes of reaching out to her
With a voice not of his own

In hope, The Poet hands her the poem
And watches the eyes
He admired for so oh so long

In hope, The Poet sees her smile
And watches her look back at him
No words are ever needed
No words are ever spoken
Yet in total harmony
The Poet and her
Read each others souls

Okay, So this isnt usually how I write, In fact, I think its the first time i have done so like this, But anyway, this is how it came out of me, and I quite like it

So the basic story is of a Poet, who is mute, who falls in love with a woman in his city. Never having been acknowledged as a person of worth in this city, He doesn't know quite what to do to confront her, No one really even noticed him. So he does all he knows how to do, Writes. He spends days in days, penning this masterful piece of literature, taking in all the inspiration he can from around him, And ultimately, When he completes his lives masterpiece, He presents to her, and i think the last verse says that its a happy ending.

Once again, Not quite my style, But i like to try new things, so be gentle!
