No Words Left

Kurt Philip Behm

Where is that voice

  crying out from the din

Where is the blood

  you spilled from within

Where is that Siren

  who once called your name

Where is the fortune

  promised by fame

Where is the lyric

  you sang to yourself

Where is that demon

  unseen but still felt

Where is the beacon

  to lighten your ink

Where is the harbor

  this side of the brink

Where is the feeling

  hearts lost in the fall

Where is the meaning

   no words left to call

 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: July, 2016)

    Kurt,

    The ‘feeling’, the ‘meaning’…
    are all there.
    (Of course, that’s only my humble opinion.)
    Loved it.
