Listen, It Speaks.
Unaware of the passing time I lay listening, to the steady beat.
Pounding in my ears, every throb, A word. Its muffled voice reaches me.Across all the barriers, it speaks to me. Through the cold metal wall, I hear.
Every flutter and pulse. Its changing rhythm to every breath I take. A split now.
A rapid bound next. Telling me not what I was thinking, but feeling. I lay silent.
Quiet. I dare not move. Lest I fail a glimpse. An insight into my thoughts.
A reason behind my actions. A deep breath now, sensing the flood in.
The scents of the world around me, providing for the hungry soul.
The numbness spreads across, as I begin to comprehend.
Its' language, its' message, flowing though my veins.
It is my sole companion from the beginning.
Until the end, when stricken mute.
Leaving nothing behind, but,
Silence. It tells me, now.
Listen, learn and live.
Always love.
