Silence
I waited for you all day long,
but you would not come…silence.
My heart cried out to you,
but you would not hear me…silence.
My arms reached out for you,
but you refused my embrace…silence.
My tears are shedding, I am broken,
but you do not care…silence.
Silence, the thing I cannot stand the most;.
It speaks the loudest to me, above all things,.
I can hear it constantly and clearly…like an echo,
but it does not fade, it builds upon itself.
It is a clanging gong.
Break your silence! Let me hear your sweet music.
Let me savor and absorb you as your lyrics unfold.
Please never deprive me, always speak your beauty to me.
It is my sustenance, my life.
“Please, spare me the pain and never tell me that you love me…for to me love is a precious thing to give and to receive…it should not be wasted, when said, if it is not genuine.” Felecia R. Weber
