Notes About The Poem

Silence Is The Sound

No one hears the tears I cry
in the solitude of a long night~
too late now for things left unsaid,
too late now for things said in haste.

Silence is a sound beating loud;
silence is the sound of my shroud.

a deeply evocative and poignant poem. You said a great deal with 'less' -- a true contest contender ...wishing you a pleasant evening
