Deadly Silence

Your deadly silence persists in wounding me
Its pierce gets louder, more deafening each day
Trying to honour your request to be 'just friends'
Is a futile attempt in every which way

Though my mind may be mislead by the challenge 
My heart remains steadfast, in no way on  board 
Profound feelers like me, we cannot be tricked 
By the blade of a double-edged sword
