he was like autumn all around him slowly died i guess i was like autumn too but adapted to blossom embracing the moods now it's raining again i foresee thunder rocking sunless skies with lightening dazzling duller days heaven's tear drops plummet like a perpetual symphony of spears and daggers hidden wounds bleed once more i bury my pomegranate heart to hibernate underneath a veil of evergreen leaves your shadow appears in obscurity of dreams a reminder of regretful stubborn bitterness or maybe forgiveness a time to move on the dead do not speak yet we search for answers to questions that should have been known in life we aim to make peace with the silence

The words you express on the page are imbued with heartfelt emotions, resonating deeply within me, evoking your pain and tears. Just as sunshine can break through the clouds, even amidst the rain, I believe that brighter days lie ahead. Congratulations on your win

We do aim to "make peace with the silence" and once we have mastered this, everything else becomes crystal clear for the silence is where hope and faith lie. This is a thinking poem that dives into the soul of the reader.

It takes time, my friend. The rain may not stay away forever, but the spears and daggers should lose their edge. Peace..

After some time passes, we do make peace with the silence. One book I read said that after we stop missing someone, then we miss missing them. (True) The pain emotes so well through your words. Powerful poetry! Hugs, Carolyn

WoW! Silent, This is a deep and thought provoking write. The lines that jumped off the page for me were " the dead do not speak,yet we search for answers to questions that should,have been known in life" I agree, with John. This is one of your best! This is an excellent piece of poetry and it's going straight into my favs:-) Alexis

Many emotions from your heart touch the page. And- I can feel your pain, your tears. Sunshine comes after the rain, sometimes during the rain. Better days are ahead. ~ Brandy

You have a wonderful inner soul Silent One that touch emotions others cannot reach. Grief and the art of forgiving oneself, before we can forgive others reaches me here, sweet sad words . . .

So many wonderful verses in this poem! ...stubborn bitterness or maybe forgiveness (the mind ebbs and flows with and thoughts) Be blessed, dear poet!

Grief, the heart-breaker, does not hurt as much as unanswered questions of bittersweet love gone too soon. Great poem, Z.

So delicate, yet so powerful..so hurtful, yet so serene! Spears and daggers of the past and the shadows that won't let go. Poetry at its best, SO--indeed we aim to make peace with silence!
