SILENCE
SILENCE
S.JENSEN (C)2017
SITTING HERE
THOUGHTS ON
MY MIND
YET SO
WALLOWING
IN AND OUT
THE SOUNDS
OF MUSIC
TO THE COMPLETE
SILENCE
ALL AROUND
TO BE
GROUNDED
SOMEHOW
CRYING
IS WANTED
BUT TEARS
REST ON MY
EYES
AND WONT FALL
THINKING
WHERE
DOES
THINGS
GO FROM HERE
AND WHAT
IS IT ALL
FOR
NOW
IN THIS
AFTER SPOT
I REST IN
THINKING
ON WHAT
I WANT
FOR DINNER
AND
MAYBE
CHERISH
MORE
OF THE WINE
I GOT
TIL ITS GONE
CAUSE
LOOKS
THAT WILL
BE THE LAST OF
IT FOR
A LONG TIME
COMING
NOW
A TREAT
THAT I CAN’T
REALLY AFFORD
TO ENJOY
THE TREES
OUT THE WINDOW
ARE SO STILL
JUST LIKE
HOW I FEEL
WELL
TO THOSE
ON THE
OTHERSIDE
GOOD NIGHT
AND FOR
THOSE
STILL
ON THIS
SIDE OF THINGS
IN THE WORLD
NIGHT
IS JUST BEGINNING
TO APPROACH
BUT DAY IS HANGING
ON FOR ANOTHER
HOUR OR TWO
GREY CLOUDS
IN THE SKY
AS THE
DAYS WINDS DOWN
AND THE
HEART OF MINE
NOW
TRULY SEEMS
TO HAVE
ANOTHER
HOLE RESTING
IN IT
SOMEHOW
I GOT
TO FIND A WAY
TO PICK UP
THE PUZZLE
PIECES
AND MAKE
THEM FIT BACK
TOGETHER
BIT BY BIT
DAY BY DAY
I WALK IT
IN THE CHOICES
I HAVE
AND
LET GO
OF THOSE
I DONT HAVE
OH TO THE
SHADES
…
WHERE IT IS
AND WHERE IT ISN’T
I TRIED
AND
ITS WHERE
IT IS
NOW
LISTENING
TO THE WAVES
OF SOUND
FLOWING IN
AND OUT
OF MY EARS
AND
EVERYTHING
ELSE
IS SO FREAKING
SILENT.
HOLDING ON...
