Silence

A desert, a cold one
A sharp, piercing wind, glass shattering,
The sand, memories,
Lost from the mind’s grip,
Forever.

Our tears, salty, our intentions, faulty
What rose will blossom?
What water in a desert?
North, South, east, west,
Lost.

From broken glass comes blood,
From which we write upon
Our own scars reading
What we sacrificed for love
Forgotten.

Empty your eyes are,
Clouds engulf the midnight moon,
What a lie your words were!
Perhaps such response is better,

  1. Ah sorry if it’s any trouble but the word “Silence” is missing at the end of the poem. Can you add it?
