A Man of Silence

A Man of Silence I am a man of silence In solitude, I remain But I haven’t chosen loneliness I have chosen to abstain On the windows I have blinds In my heart I have a fire And though I live a private life Your love, is my desire Because you understand me Because you give me calm Because you make me better I miss you These thoughts have made me stronger And you have always made me smile So I open up my window And step outside The world will hear my voice now With conviction, when I speak Your love will keep me strong enough Until again, When you and I, can meet © 2017 Jeffrey Spencer
