quiet isn't a bad thing you know my sweet friend and lover silence can speak more words than this tongue is capable silence writes more beautifully than my pen could ever hope. my silence whispers an entire lifetime of i love you's caught within my husky breath that will never warm your ear it restrains a thousand icy words wrapped in cushions of regret that would cause nothing but pain my silence sings a tender lullaby to a daughter we will never hold it provides a comforting haven for the tears you'll never taste falling from the golden pools that reflect in starlit pureness all that was and is forever yours. my silence contemplates a refusal to tear myself from the breaking waves (so breathtaking...so destructive) the day kissing the ocean, our backs turned. I didn't want to leave then I don't want to leave now. but you've made all the choices for us silence isn't a bad thing you know my sweet friend and lover silence will hold you as I no longer can it will drink of your soul thru topaz eyes silence can give you all that I am not able because I loved you with all my heart (each word penned in scarlet proof) and in silence I always will. -heather |
