"A Poem of Being for Brooke Zimmerle"

A Poem by Olivia Yvonne

Written for a girl who sees everything yet says nothing.

I am a sigh in the midnight hours
A mere drop in the storm
I am a hum in a melody
Light kisses on a neck

I am nothing yet I am
everything I've hoped to be
I'm the lull in the conversation
And the breathe of a sullen being

I can be sad or I can be empty
Given joy yet seeking envy
Never satisfied nor disappointed
I am whisper in the ear of the world
