Deafening Silence ©

Now you've gone...
deafening silence arose
Once there was laughter.
There are now tears,
And no smiles.
I'll hang onto the faith
Till we meet again
Embrace you again,
Is my heart's desire.
My arms are so empty, heart so heavy.
Life brought us together,
Not by chance but choice.
I believe we'll meet again.
Deafening Silence is not our portion.
