Compose a melody, <br />Then add some harmony - <br />Suddenly you've caught me; I'm listening. <br />You spoke of my soul <br />You contained the whole <br />Pieces of broken glass glistening. <br /> <br />A word can become <br />A meaningless hum <br />To whom do my actions give glory? <br />The song in my heart <br />Is only a part <br />A cliche in place of a story. <br /> <br />To live is to cry <br />And yet souls can fly. <br />It's not quite the end of the world. <br />There's color on earth <br />Of emotion no dearth. <br />Bloss'ming expression not unfurled. <br /> <br />2007 Idaho<br /><br />Anemone Flynn<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/insomnia-is-an-emotional-author/
