Silence is golden

only when spoken

With our hands intertwined

And your lips pressed against mine

But you no longer speak

And I no longer feel you breathe

This calm you protrude has me at unease

You are dark and mute as a grave

Cold and callous as a stone bed

This solemn silence is not ever what we craved

Once at your feet, the grass is now above your head

And this bitter suffering solace

Is because of Death

Like a thief in the night

It has stolen your glances

It has ripped your arms away from mine

Stolen your soul, left you cold and danced its dance upon our chances

This murderous divine will

Incapable of any accord

Had a mission to fulfill

And left me in an inconsolable forlorn

To feel your light brighten my life, once more
