There's an old voice in my head that's holding me back Well tell her that I miss our little talks Soon it will be over and buried with our past We used to play outside when we were young, And full of life and full of love
Some days I don't know if I am wrong or right Your mind is playing tricks on you, my dear
'Cause though the truth may vary This ship will carry Our bodies safe to shore
Don't listen to a word I say Hey! The screams all sound the same
You're gone gone gone away I watched you disappear All that's left is a ghost of you Now we're torn torn torn apart, there's nothing we can do Just let me go we'll meet again soon Don't wait wait wait for me Please don't hang around I'll see you when you fall asleep
I like the poem too. A journey into thoughts and memories. Those whispers are part of us. Telling us to go forward or stop. I like the way you told the story in the poem. A very nice ending to a excellent poem.

This was well-written and I enjoyed your cleverly simple wordplay. I especially like the stanza that reads: "Cause though the truth may vary this ship will carry our bodies safe to shore."
