Lying like needles on forest earth

again

the one time that I feel inspired
my body felt its soul
it whispered of forgotten love
of happiness and woe
traditions lost and promises
that lasted not a day
in its finest linen, I know
the things I dared not say
it speaks to me, but not
through words
or thoughts spend spitefully
but rather through
each yearning stretch
where I yearned rightfully
is that it now? I hear myself
has my soul found a voice?
should I find my Bible
and choose to make a choice?
no, the demon answers back,
no, I say again
the cotton stuffed inside my ears
has never needed friends
I still know that, deep inside
a conscientious girl
with longish hair and an intense stare
an irridescent pearl
can sing the depths of my twisted mind
the words to take me there
