In the still darkness
The body and soul sit
reflecting
events passed

No light can penetrate the shell
of dark surrounding.
A faint light appears within
It is the weakened Soul

Yearning; Needing
Faintly whispering,
To the mind and heart
the desire not to be alone

The desire to reach out
to another soul
To travel to a Place
for Souls to Heal

The Faint Whisper
grows weaker
The Soul Whispers
to the hearts of others

Hoping that one will hear:
to heal
to listen
to not let it be alone;anymore.

Sometimes the body and soul can be brought down so much by emptiness and loneliness that we can only hope that someone will come along and save us from the darkness..  Well written poem.  It puts into words what some of us feel and can't explain.

I can relate to this completely.  The hope dwindling...the whisper growing weaker...
the need.

Wonderful poem.

A job well done  this poem is  so beautiful in the most heart wrenching way it captures longing and sadness and even hope and weaves a little spell with its words

:Like Michael I can relate, the hearts voice it softens, hope fades, life force dimming.
Well done

Thank you all.

Perhaps your hearts heard the faint whisper?

Just a thought....

 The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, not the kindly smile, not the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone believes in him and is willing to trust him with his friendship."

--Ralph Waldo Emerson

this one gave me the feeling of meditation..silent..and astral travel..that inner reaching out...the soul searching for its other half..attempting to connect....
a wistful sadness in the final lines....

that you've never had it before."
