Coming Out Of The Pain, Anna Harris [rainbow fish read aloud .txt] 📗

To Joe for the inspiration


"Did you write this about me?", I traced his face with my fingers.
"Yes I wrote it thinking about you"
"Baby is beautiful", I couldn't imagined that he would say something like that, I always think that my writings are just my reflection
on life and people but most times I think people wouldn't like them.
"You mean it Joe?"
"I do baby, I do, it touches me that I inspire you those words"
"Well you do Joe, I always wanted to find a man who would inspire me to write beautiful things"
"I would take you by the hand right where the seagulls live in my home town, just by the shore"
"You would Joe?"
"Yeah baby, I would, is a place like no other, people are different and life is different"
"What is different about the Garden state?"
"Everything, the smell, the buildings, people's faces, the music, the families, is the good life for me"
"So why are you here in Florida?"
"I came here to hide from the world, from my friends over there, people pushed me to came out of hidding and do music, I came
here but I dream of coming back there, someday", he flipped through the notebook again and stopped at another page.

His voice touches my
soul
and I get high with one
single note.
I feel like flying like
a kite
no limits, just his music
and me.
His voice gets to me
like a smooth touch
it caresses my heart
and gives me a chance
to live one more time.
It gives me hope
and desires
to be myself
just to live on
the top.
His voice gives me
life
passion and a reason
to believe
good things come
out of the heart
good things
are all I need.

"Wow baby, this means the world to me"
"They are just things I write, I don't know if they are good enough"
"To me they are beautiful but I confess the first one got to me", he smile but I saw sadness in his eyes.
"What is wrong Joe?"
"I just wonder if I really make you happy, I am way too intense"
"Joe, I love being with you, is a feeling that makes me feel alive, in tune with you"
"I am sorry if I am rude at times, is just that, well, it hasn't been easy for me"
"I know Joe, I know, we are trying to come out of the pain, it takes time"
"Yeah baby, it takes time"
"Good things take time to develop"
"So they say", I took the notebook away from him.
"Do you want to take a walk with me by the shore?"
"Yes I would Mr. Weston", he smiled and I could see small wrinkles under his eyes, I love the guy, I really did, he was getting thick under
my skin, he was deep in my heart, too late to let him out. I needed him to stay right there, he made me feel good about myself, I needed
that in my life.
