And, there was noise
breached by a cry
devoid of a voice

Sobs that silently choked
Heart’ beat heard
In the void of sound
w’en air flowed
rustling din curled
leaves slowly furled
Eyes shuttered 
shattering quiet

In warmth’s embrace
Breath whispered
on a shoulder
Leading the pause, 
eloquent silence 
was heard 
above unheard clatter

And, there was noise…
