Listening to every heart

0 posted 2004-11-16 04:03 PM




Silence
Halting the heart
With briefest nod to grief
As knuckled grip seems to loosen
Bared cold chill clutches, strangling voice once more
Stumbling in tracks of salty tears
Traces of words on wind
Filling one with
Silence

Ah, so many kinds of silence - enjoyed this-

Susan

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.

See, we have the ball rolling now, and I have felt that gripping silence - it hurts.  Keep it going - why not write another?

Well done Sun,  yes there is much silence
during the moments you have given us to
think of.

Wow Karilea, this is absolutely great. I know all about silence. Sure is lonely.

I have been held in this silence before,
it is rather poignant...as is this write.
Hugs sweet sunnyperson.

The greatest beauty on earth, is
found in the hearts of those
who love....
