A Whisper

I love you, he said, but a wind came along and replaced his words with the ocean's fair song I need you, he yelled, but then thunder and rain, shattered his voice with no sign of remain I want you, he screamed, with all might of his breath Yet not one seemed to know, like the rattle of death Now his lips do not speak, not a word, nor a cry there is silence and peace in the depth of his eye But just listen and hear, how the wind whistles sweet You will hear it brings whispers of longing heartbeat
