Someone sighed <br />I heard it then <br />A long and haunting <br />sigh - it comes again <br /> <br />Who was it sighed <br />that long, sad, yearning sigh <br />It took my breath and <br />still I don’t know why <br /> <br />What was the thought, that <br />made my poor soul sigh <br />What truth wants out <br />that my heart would deny <br /> <br />glimpsed for a moment <br />then suffocated, so that in <br />this poem's battle with my heart <br />nothing splendid was created<br /><br />Sean Joyce<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/someone-sighed-i-heard-it-then/
