ulse beating to the pounding of your drums
Your voice is rapidly coarsing through my veins
Out of all this sound I hear you whisper
I hear you say
"Everything's gonna be okay"
And I know you're speaking right to me
I know that I'll no longer be
Hopeless, helpless
Cuz I am not alone
Not trapped in this fortress without you
All I hear is your voice
You are the voice inside my head
Keeping me alive
Sustaining my insides
If this music stops,
So do I
Everything you are
Is why
I'm stilll here
You gave me the strength
To conquer fears
Your noise is all I hear
And if you stop screaming
I stop living
ANd you're all that I am
I'll try to make it but I don't think I can
Without you
I'm nothing but dead
Without you
But as long as I know your voice
I still have that choice to live
One more life
I'll try if I can
But don't stop screaming
Don't stop singing
If you stop singing
I stop living
Anything you say is comforting

I can definitely relate to this even though I have different bands to 'thank' I thought this poem was an interesting concept as I have never seen a poem quite like this. I thought it was quite a good poem because of its originality, but I think it could have done w/o the last stanza and ended with the 2nd to last. Seems like a stronger ending to me.
