Silence Echoes

Smoke curls upwards and hangs in the air Late night television flashes Moonlight pours in and sticks in the haze As I thoughtfully flick off the ashes Soft wolven eyes peer up at me now He’s wond’ring at just what I’m doing Lost in the recesses of my contemplation And this storm that is constantly brewing No arms wrap around me in the darkness tonight No muffled endearment is heard I sigh and lean back as I think on the past-- Of this lesson that’s so hard to learn Life could have been so different, it’s always the case As I sit on the edge of my bed Alone I wander through Destiny’s halls And my fears on the silence are fed.
