A couple of lines for the night sky

Why can't you hear the answers in the wind
as it whips by
as you strain your ears,

listening,

to the whispers and traces,
pregnant and unyielding;

as your mind aches for what it will never know
as your heart aches for what it can only dream.

Thanks Tammy, it means a lot since I think I'm quite possibly one of the worst poets on the planet.
