hi everyone! :'D I hope you enjoy this little piec.e :D

There are moments too ephemeral
to be captured in words,
ineffable and evanescent,
leaving me here.

A pack of cards in a hurricane,
ripples lost in the sea,
the silence imbricates in my mind,
leaving me here.


When there's nothing left to say,
and everything freezes numb,
Won't love have a voice?

A little heavy on the vocabulary for me, but I do like the middle verse a lot.

ril, 
I like the premise of this poem. :) 
 
What would happen if you changed the word "pack" of cards...to..."house" of cards? :)
