Walls of Silence

To me, a silent stranger, you've become, Please talk to me, help keep our love alive. This bitter quiet leaves affection numb, With walls of silence love can not survive. We prayed our wondrous love would never end, Recall our fun and laughter in the rain. I'll never let those memories descend, Your haunting silence now drives me insane. Let's now forgive mistakes of long ago, Fly from the sad confines of loneliness. Break down these walls of silence, let love grow, I yearn for yesterday's togetherness. You are my only love, to this I swear, But walls of silence leave me cold and bare. Oct 16, 2016.
