A Breath of Air With Meaning

I've heard it said a whisper
Is a secret from the heart
A hidden truth without restraints
Where all the romance starts

It can also be a heartache
A broken tale of love
Or words of wisdom that guides our way
Like the northern star above

Sometimes it's a memory
Of a day that we hold dear
A thoughtful word of comfort
Or a long forgotten fear

A whisper can be most anything
Whatever we choose it to be
A breath of air with meaning
And that's what it is for me
