This Silence, Deadly |

This silence deadly, a dull knife cutting through my heart with each sound not heard. A reminder.... I listen for familiar sounds of creaking door but the sound doesn't come at midnight leaving me to find I am greeted by this emptiness and I suffocate from missing you. I cannot breathe while counting moments until again, I can hold your tiny hand in mine. {for April, with love} sometimes it's lonely, and sometimes it's only the shadows that fill this room... {T. Tritt} [This message has been edited by Gentle Spirit (10-03-2006 08:00 AM).] |

Hello Gentle Spirit, This was so sad, so quiet... ...the loneliness in pain. I really don't know what else to say, except, my thoughts are with you... ~Moonkist |

i know that my mother must have almost gone insane waiting for myself or my brother to return from a night out.... I did the same with my oldest....and I have another following in her footsteps that I will have to watch, watch even more closely. Thanx for the memories....I had almost forgotten them..(yeah, right) |
