Price of Silence

Piercing voices

Screams everywhere

Who would know?

The price of Silence

A heart in anguish



Where would I find?

In this souk of screams

Whispers of silence

Words of softness



Decades have passed

Nothing has changed

Screaming voice

Are still heard



As we finally meet

Within this souk of screams

A void is felt again

As if I have lost

Something of a larger significance

Is that a mirror?

Or am I its reflection

A stranger with my semblance

Is hiding behind my resemblance



Stays within my house

On a lighter note

Shares my spouse
