Silence...
Silence a word I cannot bear
Hanging wasted in empty air
We wait, we watch, we wait, we see
I'd wait forever but that is me.
Hoping, wishing, too much thinking
Wanting, needing all but sinking
I don't want to go down
Hold fast to my soul, so I do not drown.
I should not need saved, by you least of all
When you do not write
And you do not call.
I can get through this, I've done it before
I'll do it forever, no doubt do it some more.
I don't want to tell you, the words I can't say
I want you to know without words anyway.
I wish you could feel that you're more than a vision
More than a thought, a gesture, or reason
You are who you are, will never be another
And I'd never let you, else you'd not be my lover.
