Listening to every heart

Silence
Halting the heart
With briefest nod to grief
As knuckled grip seems to loosen
Bared cold chill clutches, strangling voice once more
Stumbling in tracks of salty tears
Traces of words on wind
Filling one with
Silence

Silence
is deafening.
Which is why I respond
To acknowledge unexpressed grief,
Choked back tears, burning eyes, words caught in throat.
Please do not suffer silently.
Let your friends hear your pain,
And love you in
Silence.

Great write, Karilea!

Bridget, your response...is awesome!  And that particular A word is so overused sometimes that I never use it unless I REALLY mean it....

I am so proud of you for responding that way!

~Awesome
Softly conveyed
Silence in heart does lay
Wend of word soft-spirals around
Emote of tenderest thoughts encircle
Sigh exhales from loveliest heart
Felt many miles away
So rich your thoughts
Awesome~

Silence
The soul's repast
Attune to introspect
Attend to songbird's distant trill
Hearken to the whispering of the winds
And sounds of rainbows touching down
In songs of quietude
Mellifluent
Silence
