Deep Breath
In a very, deep breath,
Whispered the long sigh
into the darkness.
Sound, like fear
Absence of nothing in the air,
Shared between silence.
Numbness has no voice,
It proclaims the choice.
Of surprise.
Its arrival is similar to a sunset
With no regret
Seen or felt.
Draws out the long word
Never before heard.
