"Silence"

How long do you want me to bear this silence
…
Just the rustling leaves, dogs howling, their muffled bark..

The rivers have tranquiled today…

So are the ways we used to walk…


How long do you want me to conceal this pain,

How long do I constrain it in my heart,

Maybe the destiny had other plans…

Is that why we were meant to depart?


I watched you fade away, bleeding over my arms..

The last words you said, “I will forever love you” still 

evokes me in the dark

Time slips away, fades away so swiftly..

The sun has risen again. I call for you, early morning chirps 

of the skylark


I still wait for your return, each day, every moment..

What should I do to hear you say that you have me forgiven

The last autumn leaf has fallen on the ground…it’s cold and dry

How long do you still want me to stand over you grave 

and......."CRY"...?
