I lost that voice
inside my head.
They said, 'Wake up'.

I tried and tried
to recover it
that almost singsong hum.

Almost a whisper,
it tells.
And suggests.

Of wide, open seas
to get lost into.
Of thousand shores

to reach.
 Where I can run
and run

Wild.
It calls me sometimes
that mystical voice.

In dreams, in snaps of time,
in silence, in moments.
It summons me---

just like that.
But I lost that voice
inside my head.

Because they said
'Wake up'.
