'deafening Silence'

The thoughts she have The things she does Don’t always concur There are times When all she wants Is to be held by you Feel the comfort of your love But all she gets is your silence Like a repetitive drum beat Deafening Pushing her away Confusing and hurtful When your words dried up What does it mean? What should she do? Move on or cling to a past That held so much promise Until that day Your words got replaced By a deafening silence

Lovely write its good to communicate but some times been quiet is good too. I'm quiet if some one upsets me I be still and let it pass rather than speak in the heat of the moment I find a loved one knows they in the wrong with out saying a word untill it passes

this is so good, Wilma. This is what happens when some people cannot wake up and see what they are doing to their relationships!!

This is very deep and seeks meaning in feelings rather than words when they fall silent. Emile.
