Whisper In The Dark

Missing image
Hold on for a moment, and embrace the silence.
Relax, and listen to your innermost voice.

Let me speak to your essence, sing to your soul
and do not fear me, for I am friend and confidant.

I know all about you, your fears and doubts,
your deepest desires, and unspoken words.

I break, and I bleed, to spare you the pain
so tell me all that you fear to say aloud.

I am your goddess of absolution, evermore.
This is your heart speaking. Can't you hear me?

    Very lyrical. This poem flowed like nothing else. A truly enjoyable piece, and really deserving of that pretty gold cup.

    Everything we need can always be found inside, and that last line says it completely. I do not know about other readers, but when I read this I was able to feel the deep sincerity and truth proffered here. It is simply stunning and an acknowledgment of something worth listening to and feeling for. I wish you generous luck in the contest.

    Kindred wishes,
    S.

    Now this is a whisper in the darkness that all should hear. Be silent and listen a message that we all should heed. Those who listen and hear learn to be who they are meant to be.

    I have to say this flowed quite well and I fell right into it as if you were talking to me. Nice Job.
