just needing silence
the shush of an empty house
save for my finger
making words
my heart making poetry.

silence
please
just once more
until I break through

silence
until my voice comes again
until my nights are safe
within smiles
meant for my heart

silence
until that voice comes back
and love's presence
will be thick
and soothing
like calm cream

silence
while someone wonders!
SILENCE EYES!
stop
reading
my poetry
stop
right there!
exit
close the book of my life
and stop exasperating me with sneaky scrutiny.

shh..
silence
anger
while I love
and am calm again
until
that voice.

How grave is my condition, for I cannot find the words to say, I need you so.
~Sarah MacLachlan~

"silence eyes". . .

that one just stood out for me. . . the whole tone of this poem is excellent. . . and you make it flow very well. . .

great job. . .
