Softly Spoken

Softly, softly, is your voice  in this song
Sweetly whispering your  longings, yearnings
Quietly telling me about  the day... your life
Small things, irritating events
Your life suddenly before me  in all its vivid dissection

But quietly, so quietly you  tell me
It enters my very soul  like a smooth sheet  of ocean water
Moving smoothly,  determined, up the fine sandy beach
Into my very heart, it penetrates, deeply

Your pain, your passions,
 your poetry, I submit
It submerges me in the
 wealth, the complexity
 of your being, ecstasy
Quietly, so quietly, speaking,
 your messages enter
 my eternity
Ever changed by your imagery,
 your experiences

softly spoken is your voice in this song...

To The Bee Gees...
