day twenty-three: whispering patron saints.

patron saints
of broken hearts
of disappointment
"where are you?"
they scream
they're searching
for what I've found
I'm afraid to share it
but I'm afraid not to
because I'm afraid
they'll take it away
these hopefuls
hopeful souls
crying to the patron saints
who only have ears
for those who whisper.
