The Sound of a Sad Soul

by Liz   Jul 2, 2007


I know the sound of moisture
I hear it in my heart
A salty run of sadness tears me apart
Leaving ringlets in my mind like
A toaster on the fritz
It gives me a quivering,
A throb that waves in bits
My tears burn hot in the cold
Running like a river, so old,
Down, down they fall like the rain
I know this feeling, I know this pain

I know the sound of moisture
I hear it in my soul
It's going to eat me, consume me whole
I sense it in my bones, a lonely sense it seems
The sorrow is flowing, curving down the stream
I want a life to live within this wet
But no life for me, to live, to forget
My searing frustration for the gloom
Has pierced me deep down in this room
I yell and scream for this all to stop
But never will I cease to drop
All the pain I have held in my heart
Has cut my skin like a dart

I know the sound of moisture
I hear it in the rain and
Even on my most gruesome enemy
I would never wish this pain.
