Silence

Silence                              
 

You took my breath away
Words I cannot say
You silenced my voice
Gave me no choice
But to be silent!
Say nothing at all
If I slip I might fall
Into that cycle that
Causes me to whisper
Forces me to reveal
What I refuse to.
Silence is golden
Maybe not, but silence is all I got.

Silence with soft kisses, holding hands, and gazing into each others eyes in front of a nice roaring fire.....hugs Tim
