I Need Your Life.

My stomach turns
The sounds of these strings
And these melodic voices singing words I find far too familiar
There is a single tone
And a single pause that affects me in such a way
A slur of a word
And a connotation in the voice that makes me relate
I can feel their pain
My pain
His pain
It is all one
And it is inside me
But I'll ignore it
It isn't worth it to focus
Still it lingers
Onward
and Upward
Maybe some day
Heavenward.
