Silence

Your silences are like stories in a book The silence of newness Shy, sweet, hesitant At first meeting Searching for the right words Desperate to connect The silence of passion Hot, powerful, yearning I am wanted The desire in your eyes Tells me so The silence of synchronicity Warm, comfortable, loving No words necessary Your hand over my hand We are one The silence of disconnect Blank, reluctant , secretive Walls are built You roll away from me No kiss goodnight The silence of goodbye Sad, lonely, repentant Closing the door Nothing more to say Both hearts breaking
