i like your silence <br />now <br />it is not like the <br />silence we had <br />before <br /> <br />your silence <br />now is different <br />it is <br />reminiscing <br />it is <br />refreshing <br />it is <br />sensitive <br />to my presence <br />it is <br />reflective of <br />who i am <br />enabling me <br />to hear my <br />breath <br />to see and <br />feel <br />my very own soul <br /> <br />i like your silence <br />now <br />it is the silence <br />of the memory <br />that cannot <br />be forgotten <br /> <br />it is not death <br />it is life <br />it is the blossom <br />of my sorrow <br />it is the fruit of <br />my despair <br />it is the silence <br />of my silence <br />it is the peace <br />within my <br />solitude <br />it has become <br />the center of <br />my life <br />the focus of my <br />scattering <br />the finding of <br />my loss<br /><br />RIC S.
