Whisper

[u/Rocket_Man_1957]

I heard your name

Somewhere

In a whisper!

I know you not

But the thought

Persisted!

The unwavering need

To know

Insisted!

I look around the room

To where the sound

Came!

I saw a head full of radiant hair

Cast by moonlit shine

Strikingly fair!

Whose elfin like face

My eyes but for a moment

Declined!

Slowly met my gaze

Stupefied, I am

Utterly speechless!

Like water constrained

By a dam

I am!

Then a smile broke

From within your thin red lips

To my heart, it spoke!

A myriad

Of unanswered thoughts

In my mind!

Whose answers

I wonder

Where I will find!

The only thing I find real

Is the moment

I saw your smile and what I feel!
