Your voice

Clearisa Davids 1979 (South Africa)

Free verse
Your voice..
I heard you,
Deep and loud.
The most beautiful set of blue eyes
Next to me.
I looked past those eyes
Searching for the face
Of that voice.
There you were.
Standing tall.
Standing proud.
Singing your heart out.
Off key...
It didn't bother you.
Neither me.
All I wanted was to see the face,
Of that voice,
Your voice...
