An Inscrutable Silence Poem by Romeo Della Valle
An Inscrutable Silence
The no message message
A space without a frame
No sound or a syllable
leaving behind a name
Inscrutable silence
Wrong number didn't dare?
Nothing in particular
Though someone had been there...
For they tried more than once,
To see if I was home,
I was of course, they knew it
By not answering the phone...
Perhaps it was destiny
I left hanging on the line,
'Why didn't you answer?
We called time after time'
'We could not reach you
So we gave up the cause,
Is misery the resting place
You go to just because...?
'No' I tried to defend
The weakness in my ego
Hesitating to answer
The calling of long ago...
'You will have to explain someday
And face yourself, 'then,
The voice added:
'You will have to face us as well'...
'I know, ' I said, 'I was
The blank space on the tape,
The one who wished to say something
No recording device could ever replay!
