Whisper
March 10, 2010
It’s been taken away
Like a whisper in the wind.
Drifting among the trees
Until slowly fading into the distance
Not there anymore
As if it never was, never will.
Disappearing in the darkness
Eaten up by the silence
Dissolved into the earth
Never to return
Never to speak
Never to live
Fight for what is right
For what numbs the pain
As we thrust our swords
And clink our knives
We, too fade in the distance
As we all
End up the same.

Thanks for your review. I'm trying to get more submitted; I guess Teen Ink is thoroughly looking through the submissions. For the time being, you can check out some of my other work.

Quite thought-provoking! I think this would be a wonderful exercise for a creative writing class. Remove the title, and ask people what they imagine you had in mind when you wrote it.
