Silence

Silence

A Poem by Ana B.

Between the whispers of the rain drops

And the howling of the wind

Between the echoes of the rocks

The smoky veil has thinned…

 

Unbroken and wise, the silence speaks

With a heartfelt voice

Of the dried tears on the cheeks

And of wars that make no noise…

 

Of the gloomy thoughts on a Tuesday afternoon

And their ramifications…

Of the happiness that’s so hard to resume

Because of the haunting perfections…

 

Of the life that slips away

Without sense and trace…

Of the hearts we keep in disarray

In the silence’s embrace…

Your skill in rhyming without losing any sentiment is top class (in fact its the opposite effect with your writing - your tight rhymes exponentially enhance it).
Only you could incorporate words like 'ramifications' into a sensual piece without making it sound like a news report. Pure class!
