Drowned Out by a Whisper (Poetry)

This strange little voice

I should think of a child

But no, it is just a little lady

“You are not welcome here”

Isn't much of a greeting

As she tells me her patience

With my presence is fleeting

How all the voices of the world

Can be drowned out by a single whisper

I drive myself to deafness

On account of a whisper

Wayward child, I pray for you

But I fear my prayer has been

Drowned out by your Whisper

Drowned out by a whisper

Were once my hopes and dreams

The specter of your figure

Melts the stitching of the seams

All that holds my innards together

What is left of my cheer

Has been drowned out by a whisper
