River flows in December's cold Water black like the darkest breeze Silence invites me, I hear so clear Drowning away all my pain and fear Dusk to dawn I walk along That road that silence brings Kissing death and waiting ever so For my final breath to cease As the river flows

I feel your pain, Art, just behind my eyes where the tears hide and as I hold them at bay I try not to listen too closely to the silence that living alone brings. I pray your deep dark pit of grief ends soon. In the meantime, hold someone's hand....
