There's a wind that's blowing
It's not whispering nor screaming
but it's persistent and cold.
I said
There's a wind blowing
whispering or screaming
whipping past
cold and chilly ears.
Yet,
there's a silence overwhelming,
inexplicably alone,
afraid and quiet,
the tumultuous depths roiling
under the surface
where the wind grazes.
I said
there's a wind
but you can't hear it
and you never will
not out of deafness
but out of blindness.
And I look on, into it;
feel it scratch and caress,
and I sigh my own wind
a relief when it ends
because the wind
comes from beyond
where my wishes
are trying to materialize.
I wish...
I wish the wind.
I wish the wind would...
...when the wind wends...
...when I wish the wind would.
