Noise…
Random sounds
Without meaning
Only increase the
Silence of our lives.

Words…
Spoke at but not to
Each other, echo
In the gulf formed by time
And separate lives

Music…
Played once upon a time
Now stilled as the grooves
Have grown worn and tired
Till the needle won’t track

Stillness…
That lies in hearts once
Alive with voices of love
Consumes the whisper of hope
With its vastness

Silence…
All that’s left of our love.

sometimes the sound of silence is the most deafening sound. Enjoyed the read and I hope that sweet songs soon fill your ears.

a silence that I haven't found the remedy yet...great work on this one...its funny, I never put it together til now...I used to be almost addicted to the radio...finding 'my love' in every song...now I prefer silence, I guess I gave up 'looking'.....nice work
