SIlent Voices

Do you hear a silent voice
A silent voice calling you out?
Calling you out by name?

The last of all the fools
Has finally gone away
Leaving only that which remains

My silent voice waits patiently
Watching each night and day
Call again and wait for reply
But things overwhelms me at times

Do you listen?
Do you answer?
Do you even hear?
Or is it just wind and the trees?

A silent voice speaks to me
It speaks in you and even they
Whether heard whether heeded whether understood
It never goes away.
