Silence Says It All

I wrote this poem back in March of 2009 and it just keeps haunting me. I re-live writing it and crying. I remember the emotions that circulated me and the man I wrote it for. He is a man of silence, and I wish I could hear this in his whisper again. This time is not like the time that this was written, no matter how hard I wish it to be so. I am publishing this poem so I may release it. May it no longer sneak up and remind me of the Love we once shared.


Silence Says It All

That one long pause;
The subtle sigh.
I can hear the
Tear in your eye.

Love crying on;
Our life on hold.
I ache for you;
My soul so tolled.

Express your heart!
My ears do yearn!
Words in your throat
Begin to burn.

My spirit leapt;

Hope did partake.

Yet silent wait
Did dreamers make.

The choice was yours
To leave or bide.
Disappointment
I could not hide.

Yet.

I knew intent;
No words needed.
Heard it all tho
Minds were heeded.

I love you too.
