Adjusting To the Silence

To accept and absorb the grief Of something that only you complete That soft touch that element of care My soul longs for your touch The way you saw and made me see Adjusting to the ache of silence Pushing through the storm and the rain. The quiet before the storm That embrace to quieten my beating heart The things we share become a part of us. You were soft beautiful and bright You were my guiding star on a moonless night I will survive and endure and fall to my knees Adjusting to the silence only if I could see you once more. I toss and turn in my dreams like the wind that tosses a flame, I will cover the light with my two hands so that you can burn bright and walk in light Till I stumble into your embrace To quieten my beating heart Adjusting to the silence like a leaf falling with the breeze To ease the pain of raindrops falling on ears with sounds of heartbeats. 25.08.2020 Cold- Quiet Now
