SOUNDLESS SOUND
What?
I can’t hear you.
What are you saying with your vibrato voice layered with chords of pain?
Inner ears can’t process the vibration.
Only echos of love can be transmitted across the sound divide.
The rope.
It’s hanging.
Will you grab onto it?
Oh....
Let it slip through your chaffed hands.
The bottom floor is waiting for you.
Rest there in your mother’s arms.
The storm is over.
