VOCAL (I Love It When You Call)
Introduction This is for D.K. Shepard's Unofficial Vocal Acrostic Challenge that you can read about here: It's about my current situation with Vocal, and though it is an Acrostic, it has a constant number of syllables, eight per line and an ABABA rhyme, just to make it a little more difficult.

I Loved You in Silence, and That Was My Loudest Mistake
Intro: Some love stories are never written in ink—they're etched in silence, in the glances that never turned into words. This is for the ones who loved quietly, who never confessed, and who now carry an ache louder than any goodbye. --- Poem: I saw your soul before I knew your name, A quiet storm I couldn’t tame. You smiled like summer, stayed like rain, Then left me blooming in the pain. I traced your shadow in every song, Hoping silence wouldn't mean I was wrong. But silence, it seems, was the only reply— To the love I gave and your silent goodbye. I loved you softly, like a fading light, And you— You disappeared into the night. --- Outro: If you've ever loved someone in silence, you're not alone. Let this poem be the words you never said. Share this with someone who needs to hear it. Comment below: Have you ever kept your love a secret?

Voicing (A Poem Bought Online)
Vis-à-vis. clever via null and void vernacular, veering from one end of a particular spectrum to another, my voice has the register of a violently vibrating out-of-control velociraptor sex toy(bought from Temu) dancing with General Pinochet, while Sia she dangles from her dang chandelier (bought from Wish). She's unstoppable—unless she's napping. If today is not the day she is unstoppable today. Is it a suggestion—mere interjection—a ramblification? This is not Keats. This is assault with a deftly unsheathed Thesaurus (bought from Aliexpress). Just say how hard when I say hump. Wait, I mean jump. Just say jump when I say how high.
