"The silence fades with a soft embrace" I often just sit and remember my loved ones gone above one by one to become a name deep engraved in cold stone. I have learned to hide my grief but I dream at night and sometimes weep as the silence fades with a soft embrace, so, I know they love me still and at times in the silence I hear, my baby crying for me.

So deep with pathos, touching the heart. Great write, Constance.
