"He Shouts (She Whispers)"

Waking the Dead. Grace/Boyd. Poemish.

--

He shouts.

She whispers.

He wins.

So does she;

He just hasn't noticed yet.

Because while he is busy

Being brash and bold

And throwing his arms about

In fits of rage

And busy instilling the fear of God

Or maybe not so much of God

As of himself

She quietly works her way

Through the small cracks

In his defensive iron armour;

And he doesn't

Notice

Because she whispers

While he shouts.

AN: not entirely sure where this came from but I quite liked it. Hope you did too :)
