Whisper of Nothing

 

 

Speechless only describes the words that I cannot put together.

I cannot put together enough words to describe how I feel right now.

There are so many of them flooding every crevice of my mind

But I remain speechless.

My mouth drops open and nothing but a whisper comes out.

Whisper of nothing.

Nothing spoken, when things need to be said.

 

I look at you standing there

Your words raging

Whisper of nothing, says my mouth

Racing words, thinks my mind

The words fall off your tongue like water rushes down a fall

 

My words start to disappear as Anger creeps up

Up my toes, up to my head

Filling every empty space in my body

Hatred begins to consume me

Words begin, and they don’t stop

 

I look at you standing there.

Words halted.

A Whisper of nothing, says your mouth.
