When Whispers Echo

When whispers echo you're really alone

For it's different than a shout

A whisper comes from some place deep

As heartache comes tumbling out

It's a breath of air with meaning

An echo filled with pain

A silent scream, your heart demands

From the memories that remain

An echo sealed with a goodbye kiss

Can hurt much worse than death

For the whisper fills your hollow heart

As it takes your final breath

The whisper seems to get louder

The second time it's heard

It's almost more than you can stand

By the time it reaches the third

When whispers echo you're really alone

For it's different than a shout

A whisper comes from some place deep

As heartache comes tumbling out
