Talking Alone

I was sitting there waiting but nothing was happening

I thought there would have been something

It was just silence all around

No response

Empty stillness

Deafening emptiness

Still I wondered if there would ever be a reply

Seemed like I was doing all the talking

Nothing else left to say

But I don't think the concerns will go away

May as well get on with the rest of the day

Hoping for some answers but nothing came to be

I continued to plea

I wish you could see

Wondering about the depth of such a decree

That maybe it was only me

Just an observation

This was a one sided conversation

For Fun
