In Comes No Reply

You fade away into silent raindrops leaving emptiness inside me
The time you should never doubt, comes to remain
If any good should come near it would only be a sting
In places where I meet more than I know
You are kind, I will give you that

I can see where no reply comes creeping in, a knife wielding thief
You will recognize her by how tall she stands
Wishing your reality would not sleep within these places
Is not always the wisest way to know her lips
You best be singing a delicate song

One hand fails to fill the cracks of everything we’ve been through
While life performs for unbreakable hearts
You fade away leaving nothing but emptiness inside me
Now who will protect me when I think no reply
Is softly calling out my name

There are seasons still looking for truth to be what it calls itself
So go ahead and rearrange all your doubts
Keep wishing your reality will form into shapes that sting
I will take this emptiness from more than I know
Leave a kiss on no reply’s sweet mouth

Feeling pain let's us know we can still feel... and allowing that pain to flow out helps dilute it in the heart and soul. That last line was a heart stopper. Great work.

the silent treatment leaves a kiss of unanswered Question for great piece like how it comes together from beginning to end. Excellent write.

"I will take this emptiness from my personal hell/Leave a kiss on no reply's sweet mouth". Your poetry always takes my breath away, you are and always will be one remarkable writer in my eyes.

"Leave a kiss on no reply's sweet mouth", beautifully written. I feel like our poetry always takes on the same tone at the same time; our interconnected old souls are showing again!

your arrangement is impeccable to pull the reader through the emotional eye of your needle~ what a wondrous montage of word string youve woven here~
