100 Words: Eden
Her head is seemingly filled with
A senseless silence
Despite constant efforts to increase the volume
There’s still a personal void
This emptiness often muted
By the sounds she chooses to muddle life with
I’ve tried to tell her
I’ve tried to make it clear
But my words are too softly spoken for her to hear
She doesn’t understand why it can’t be easy
Why can’t she just recreate that melodic tune
That personal eden
Where there’s more light than dark
Where there’s more love than hate
She’s trying to amplify and resound
So….she opens her mouth and sings
100 Words
Brainchild of:
Velvet Verbosity
