Silence of Sound

My voice goes unheard against the push of the wind

My sound is nothing but a whisper against a roar

The strong storm shoving my me at gust into the open plains

Falling to the ground like the hot sand in the great desert 

I'm left with the sound of my own thoughts and that great wind

Each step I take sinks deeper into the spice scented sand

Looking up and seeing that blue sky so hauntingly silent 

My heart beating in time with the vibrations all around 

I am one with the silence of sound
