Pay no mind

Out in the night a wind blows
Apart from the others, this wind
It's meant for me
Its chill, its life
Was never meant to be noticed
But here I sit and feel the cold

There's nothing to echo
No one has sung for so long
The world has moved on
So much has been lost
No one thinks to miss one small voice
So many things were that are not
Hardly a thought spared for that
Which never was

A quiet melody could live here
Disturbing no one with its gentle song
There's room enough
Between the silent walls
Cool breezes flow
Never knowing which might be the one
That carries the tune
The first in ages

It is special because it is the first
It doesn't matter the flows
Beats fall away, in quiet respect
Only the notes remain
They know the truth
They have a right to be,
Have always been

The wind, the air, the silence
Has had its time enough
There is space here for a song
For a voice
The broken piece
That was never missed
Until it fell lightly into place
Carried on a wind
That would have been content with silence
Had it never heard the song
