The Real Folk Blues

by Animegurl002

This poem is strickly the result of a Cowboy Bebop overdose. I played The Real Folk Blues for hours, and the poem just came out. Enjoy!

I listen closely to love's song,

a song with words we don't know.

My ears hear a melody,

but my heart feels tears.

The Real Folk Blues.

I close my eyes in false comprehension,

but all I hear is hurt,

I can't know your pain,

but I can sense your conflict.

A tragic love story.

A lost soul of the past,

but still she guides your future.

The Real Folk Blues.

Play it again for me.
