Theme: Singer

Voice

Your voice is like the wind,

Like an anguished current of air 

weaving in and out of the streets

of a long-abandoned city,

Crying out a melody of melancholy and loss

 

Like piano keys in minor, in an empty room

A scream of suffering that no one can hear

A solitary, lonely sound...

 

Your voice, like a gale, hits me,

and I stumble backwards,

overwhelmed by its ferocity, its pain.

 

Yet, in listening to you, 

why do I feel so alive?
