That Sound, Those Words

I poem about how what someone says can affect your whole life.

What was that?

That he just said?

As I hold the phone to my ear

and he speaks so casually

 

The thought of his words

make me wish

that I were deaf

to all the world but him

 

So many times I have fallen

and couldn't get up

engulfed by fear

by anger and hate

 

And when the sea of my hear

fights with all it's furry

That is when he speaks

so calm and clear

 

My hate fades to peace.

 

His words, his encouragement,

his belief in me

calmed the storm,

giving the sea new balance

 

Why does he always do this?

Always without hesitation

like my guardian Angel

like my hope

 

But through this I do not know

how to interpret

that which he said

when we talked that night

 

So what was that?

That which he said that evening?

Does he know?

Do I?

 

My mind swims in the emotion

Not able to be written

Not known to anyone

Not even to me

Author's Note

Yes I know 'Angel' is capitolized. It's suppost to be.
