the universe took a moment to reflect
time and space slithered across
an existance held within seconds
from her lips; suns and moons
stars and slinder angels sparkling darkly
in an empty void of tethered dreams
compelled by the voice
from her lips; black holes and death
my emotions break and scream with the
incomprehensible power of it
like fingers down my soul
like broken glass on my eyeballs
forcing them closed
from her lips; everything I ever wanted to hear
from her lips; everything I never wanted to know
from her lips; a whisper

Much emotion in these lines....With each passing line, the intensity grows...So much power in a whisper!

You softie you. That whole "fingers down the soul" line made me think of vomit, but not in a bad way. Er... assuming there's a good way to think of vomit, but you get my meaning.. self-induced vomitting I should say. PUrging. Yeah, that's the word I'm looking for. lol. Now that it took me ten lines to get to that, I'll leave quietly.
