Silently Spoken

The words she mumbled were weak

Scattered like dust upon sand

Engorged and diluted.

They did not mean anything to him.

They were strings pulled from one side of the ear

through the other.

She was an ant to him-

Tiny and feeble.

Lost upon giants, she could not cry for help.

Her voice, just a squeak.

A mouse perhaps.

Silently spoken.
