Sounds

A Poem by Dustin Reichmuth
"

Oh, hello. Welcome. Have a seat. Can I get you some tea? No? Well then, pull up a chair. Make yourself comfortable. You're very welcome, dear.

"
Oh, hello there.
I didn't hear you, you were so silent.
My eyes could not conceive what they were seeing.
Was that you leaving?
Oh, goodbye there.
I didn't feel you, the air was so violent.
My ears could not believe what they were hearing.
Was that you screaming?

Don't make, a sound.
Not loud, not loud.
We're all, around.
Somehow, somehow.
We build, these ties.
Goodbye, goodbye.
We live, we die.
Oh my, oh my.

Oh, what a strange time, my, my, my.
Well, well, well, this is a different story.
I can't believe that you gave me the keys.
And then you told me to leave,
What a scene, what a scene.
I made a sound and I started to walk.
As I turn away I heard that you talk.
And what do you say?

Don't make, a sound.
Not loud, not loud.
We're all, around.
Somehow, somehow.
We build, these ties.
Goodbye, goodbye.
We live, we die.
Oh my, oh my.

Oh, hello.
I haven't been here in awhile.
I've been looking for something that's not real.
But I think that what I wanted might have been overlooked.
These things happen occasionally, and you can't always help them.
But we all try to help the things that will in the end just die.
I've been trying to come up with reasons, but..
I haven't been able to in awhile.
Oh, goodbye.

Don't make, a sound.
Not loud, not loud.
We're all, around.
Somehow, somehow.
We build, these ties.
Goodbye, goodbye.
We live, we die.
Oh my, oh my.
