Day of Silence

April 19, 2012 By Brandon Leave a Comment

Day of Silence
Credit: Jan H. Andersen, http://www.jhandersen.com

When I asked for someone to speak for me

there was silence

When I buckled and fell under the weight of words

there was silence

An army of likeminded people appeared behind me

but stood in silence

And so my hunger for love became so great

that it was silence.

 

For those we have lost~ B. Shire
