it's with sadness I have that I can't hear the words

Shhh
don't speak.
listen to the rhythmic winds whisper in the desert night
something hauntingly calling out to be heard 
it's with sadness I have
that I can't hear the words

from this abyss of darkness I ask of him
shed some light on this forsaken soul
the shaman said to listen an learn 
but the vision's I've called upon are blurred

am I blinded to the truth ?
is redemption just out of grasp ?
a sin long suffered from the past ?
love ?
hate ?
their's or mine ?

Shhh
don't speak.
listen to the rhythmic winds whisper in the desert night
something hauntingly calling out to be heard 
it's with sadness I have
that I can't hear the words

From The Heart Writing

.

"...listen to the rhythmic winds whisper in the desert night..." between winds and whisper an excellent example of caesure (the pause) and the line mimics the sound of the wind in onomatapoea (sense and sound as one). Miraculous mesmerizing write. Aloneness painted with words. Nice. ~Star~
