Whispers in the wind

I feel
things

important
things

needing
wanting

to be said
to be heard

and yet

the storm
it rages so

even my friends
do not hear

it screams
in words

of thunder
deafening

drowning

my words

lost

and yet,
perhaps

carried?

leaning forward
i whisper

~

planting seeds
mere whispers on the wind
