In this army of voices ringing with angst
Yours was the loudest
And you let us ride this surge of power
We felt it crawling in our skin
We felt numb and, together
We wanted to break the habit
And we heard your voice
Talking to us, reaching out
From the unknown depths of your being
But how far deep does one need to read
Between the lines
To trace the words back to the source
To feel the contorted syllables
Not only on the tip of our tongue
To read the silences which echo everything
That could not be put in words
And now, the silence speaks
But our countless voices join together
To keep your echoes alive
Till the end.
And it does matter.
