Questions for a Broken Record
Poem by Lilian Wicca
Music brings our souls to life but when I hear your song,
I want to cry,
What is it about your melody?
stabbing my very gut each time I hear the same chorus,
repeat it over and over, cause me more grief, please!
your story that you sing to millionaire strangers,
what do you want them to believe?
The lyrics are false and the story is missing,
yet those few details don't benefit you,
sing what you like to gain your truth,
believe your lie, yell it to the heavens,
I still won't listen,
We were right there, penniless but loving,
singing our record until insanity hit,
the same versus but the only difference being,
no listeners, or rather listener, was present,
Your broken record plays but I no longer hear it,
I hear nothing that speaks to my soul other than the silence,
where you once sang the real song,
and now you are gone.
