Whispers Scream
By Silver Spectre
Love is a thousand scattered whispers longing to be one
Traveling
down the spring gathering voices as this love moves
A trickle to
a stream, a whisper to a scream
Calling out into the scenery, searching
out another
We float down currents never knowing what lies just beyond
Every bend bringing new possibilities of what dreams may be
But for many these whispers get lost in the tall barren canyons
We
wish for our love to find something soft and fertile
“The next
Turn” we tell ourselves,
and then the whispers hit
Thunderous
is this sound of love against the rock
“This must be what I have
dreamed of” we say
“My love sings like a choir here”
A melody so enchanting and bold
Like an army reaching out and taking
control
But it does not grow, just bounces till we fade
As
farther down in the soft fertile valley awaits
Fertility, She is
lonely with her wonder and silence
While tending her flowers she
tears
”will whispers never come”
And there we are, sadly
clinging to the rock
Just up around the bend above
Hypnotized
by the angelic
Echo of a whispers scream
Lost in the thunder
cracking
We fall in awe of our own love
In love with our own
dream
