Quite Like You

Quite Like You

A Poem by Mikalynne

I never thought that something so long

Could turn my laughter to tears

And for all these years

This thing so long

Has turned my joy to fear

Ages ago I would've been wrong

But the Earth told me to sing my song

Said "Go on girl and sing your song

Nothing I give could be so strong

And no one can sing it quite like you"

 

Voices surround tell forgotten legends

Spirits of the Earth and Sky

Taught me well, I can't deny

Sistas can you comprehend

My emotions for my bretheren

Wind calls for dance, a dance so high

"So dance to allow your soul to fly

Dance to live a thousand lives

Cause no one can move it quite like you"

 

Lift me up oh spirits and take me back

To where I first lost my way

To where I began to go astray

Do I reveal to all the beaten path

Or leave it simply cut in half

Spirits say "Do, you can be brave

No one has seen so far down the way

Let them venture forth on this new day

Cause no one can do it quite like you"

This is gorgeous description & excellent use of repetition. o= I was immediately drawn in by the title, for some reason "Quite Like You" caught my eye right away! I loved the beautiful dialogue and the magical elements that this contained. The lines "So dance to allow your soul to fly / Dance to live a thousand lives
were my favorite! Absolutely lovely! Great job! (:
