Your Heart I Hold

I know I told you I fell out of it...
       Pride was a wall that just didn't fit...
                Black and white raining memories...
                       Falling slowly but clouding discoveries...
                               Thoughts constructed but a voice with no sound...
                                         Hand written rhymes that float around...
                               Some will sink in as ohers disappear...
                        Most will find pages and land with a tear...
                 Flip through slow and you can feel my soul...
      Swallow my words and your heart I shall hold...

Nicely done Michael! I love what you said about rhymes - not all stand out but those that do make an impact and that's what matters in the end. Nice!
