The Whispering Call

the whispering call
----------------

a moment alone is not wasted
it is however, an opportunity
to savor the life i've tasted
a life and love so free

this is a time to quietly ponder
the future, present, and past
amid these many thoughts i wander
seeking comfort in a life lived to fast
"they" say that i should not be alone at all
that i will find within my own destruction
but alone i hear best the whispering call
to express my mind with my hearts construction

with pen in hand i follow the thouoght
writing it down i exorsize my despair
qualified by time and the pain it has brought
to buide myself through truths laid bare
