Speak

lyrics

Speak

In silence; in emptiness

you speak

I hardly understand you,

Understatement

I find you provoking; swallow my pride (Bride)

In silence, in emptiness I speak

Hardly fret (find) the time

to speak,

[Fabian G. Franklin]

Well, we must better articulate in eloquence and listen in sincerity eh? I just got a summons for jury duty next month so I may be doing a trial of hearing before long. I'm in my sixties and never served on jury duty before. It may be interesting if I'm chosen. We'll see.

I went, I saw, I went home and they paid me. (laughing) I didn't really want to do that anyway.

I feel this is about knowing the true power of your own voice. The person speaks but may not be understood but they still use their voice. I could be wrong. I like the shortness of this poem how it conveys alot in so few words!

[knighngale]

thank you Aura, breve only shows weep, when in quarrel; it hurts me so much, that I say none, :D

[Aura]

You are welcome

[Perdition]

There you go..very direct and you can hear the walls falling all around you. Only one commitment and once you free your ego, will, and release all but that silence that lets whatever write have its say and this is when you hear the poetry come a-knocking. Well presented and like the machinegun Staccato as if making some wall understand your currency of point, It is very much a significant part of this entirety. Well done and thank you for the sharing~

I liked the short statements. Each worthwhile and powerful. You give enough to tempt the reader and make them want to know more. When we feel apart from someone, something. We feel empty. Thank you for sharing your amazing poetry and your thoughts.

thank you Cayote, It's hard to tell someone something when I'm angry or upset. I hit every object all the time, because I can't express myself. I wan't to say, but I just cry inwardly and stare. I find it hard to tell my feelings. I write, but I hardly speak, :D thanks for reading, hon

[Coyote Poetry]

You are welcome, dear poet. Most of us, rarely show emotions.

[William Michael Reeves]

Body language in your words. I could feel the distance between who you are communicating with and you. Then maybe try singing your thought as notes on a fret of emotion. Strings that carry no sound into a body with no hollow. But we are listening...

[knighngale]

Yes, William, I stand pissed. I break, hit everything in sight when it happens LOL. :D

[Betty Hermelee]

Before you speak, think about what you are going to say; those words mean nothing to me….emptiness endures….I shall do the same” in emptiness I speak….though I fret as well. Time will tell.
Best

Clumsy LOl thank you so much Betty! :D

[Betty Hermelee]

I figured so... you're welcome anyway

[Cherrie Palmer]

In silence we wait. In ink we can sing, soar and find our voice that and a smile can rule the world.

[knighngale]

what a rude awakening, LOL, great start Cherrie, thanks a bunch :D

[Ashi written tale & poe..]

I like the way you have written :)

[knighngale]

hellos, Ash, thank you so much,, :D

[Patricia]

sometimes one shouldn't speak, yet, we can't help ourselves, think first, not something we do well. silence, never overrated in my book. I like this :)

[knighngale]

glad you did, :D thing is, I wan't to say something but cannot. It's really me who wants to reclaim, but i don't say a word to him, :) thank you for reading and reviewing, :D

[Patricia]

Follow your instincts, timing will present itself. And you are welcome. ;)
