Vocal Chords

A singer's life is far from free who would know more about it than me ? Late hours and circles under the eyes flowers and perfume and so many guys peering and watching the moving of hips hoping they'd listen to sounds from the lips the pounding and hearing of drums in the ears has made me half deaf over the years the glittering dresses cost so much rough to the skin and to the touch I sing a lot and drive and roam I guess there's just no place like home

hi, Madalyn hope you like it here, I have been here a few months now, they teach a lot at the home page, you write very well you just drop down the page very nicely, and you have that ability to put that one line that may carry the whole poem, don't stop writing, I did when I was young I did not think I was good and then got busy with life,, but maybe it is my time to write after taking life in, I started two and a half years ago,
