Silence of my Soul

Never knew this could be so hard

The remnants of the past cloud my mind

This wasn’t supposed to last

Wasn’t supposed to be so unkind


There in the song, there in the sun

In the quiet of the night

Dancing in the dreams

Alone, not knowing whether to lead

Or follow, I awake from the tears


The questions, follow to our graves

All these years, I’ve become undone

No one to tell..no one to ask

Realizing...silenced my soul

The rhythmic flow of these

The rhythmic flow of these lines bring the reader to the imminence of the silencing of the soul. One feels with the poetic narrator and moves with the emotive language. Thanks for sharing. /RIk.
