A Deafening Silence

by @vijayalakshmi-harish

I was always so lonely when I was with you You spoke of the weather and other mundane realities yet I hung on to every word held helplessly captive by your voice And even now I’m solitary long after you've evaporated I have frequent and interesting conversations with others but it all seems empty I’d rather hear you speak of the weather - Vijayalakshmi Ramachandran    03/09/2006    Copyright © Vijayalakshmi Harish

Notes

An old poem, I wrote many years back. Inspired by the work of Dorothy Parker - though mine came out as depressing rather than witty like hers!
