Marmalade Voice
Creative Pieces… 84
by Camie Del Rosario
Christened this bedroom with the tears from my heartache Moved in but felt paralyzed when the earth began to shake Beneath my feet, The rug pulled out from under me. Cold, dark, and dreary is how this room felt Just three days in, there on the ground is where I knelt collecting the pieces of my shattered heart. I heard a song once that said, “Love will tear us apart.” Didn’t think I could find home and that chances for love found the end But you walked in and I felt my heart beating again. My heartbeat sounds like the sound of your voice. Under the light of the moon, my evergreen soul will rejoice You are my favorite choice You and your marmalade voice.
