MUSIC
KERRY JO BELL
Words move your lips
This soliloquy gently
swaying my hips
With its honesty
And splendour of innocence
Your word-ful beat
Cause me to move my feet
And my world will never be the same
The gracious way your lips
echo my name …
Your soulful words
Fill my soul with enchantment
My heart is finally content
Cause you meant every word
My ears do a summersault as you tell me a story about your youth
When your father thought you uncouth
Cause now he relishes in your glory
I am but a woman
Standing in the entrance of your world In a trance ready to dance
To your bliss full rhythmic words
I’ve never heard anyone speak their truth
Quite like you
And in a world of liars
I want to be in yours for all my years
Cause your candidness is music to me
About the Author
Kerry Jo Bell loves escaping into re-imagined worlds of her own creation as an outlet to express her deepest thoughts and feelings. While she is shy and awkward in person, she has always been brave and unbridled on the pages. It wasn’t until five years ago however, that she began to write ‘professionally’. Since then, her work has appeared in multiple literary journals and magazines.
