Not a Whisper

Sat, 09/06/2014 - 18:04 -- Kiseki

Trapped, I pound on the glass

Full, the chalice brims with emotion

The outside, cool, collected,

              motionless

The inside shaking, quivering,

               bursting

Words
              S
                  P
                     I
                        L
                           L

S p l a s h onto the page,

Passengers of emotion, of thought

                escaping

escaping the glass,

                   the city: bustling, pushing

                                  roaring to be heard - not a whisper sounds to the breeze outside,

                                                                        not a whisper stirs the grass on the other side.
