Silence
#6 of Poetry
A poetry I made because I felt I was inspired by the silence between people that can be destructive if not processed.
An eminent silence was between us
Made an abyss, a ravine that we couldn't cross
I felt my throat was laced and you yours
We didn't grasp the opportunity
Our beautiful oasis gave ominous signs
Signs that just were born out of the blue
I couldn't put a finger on it but
It seemed our time together wasn't perfect after all
We didn't say anything
We were silent, out of words
Our waters were spilling out of the edges
I didn't want this to happen or you either
We fought without words to keep ourselves together
But the waters were keeping spilling out
I wanted to say something but emptiness took me
You sat there fiddling with nothingness
Helplessness had become our common friend
The trees began to wither
The flowers died
The colors of life faded
Now the Earth was shaking in tremendous force
You were stumbling
I was falling into the ravine
We didn't say goodbye but knew it
I gave up and lost my pride
You were left up there where a desert had emerged
I should have said something and you too
But it was too late
Now we seemed to be like oil and water
Unable to be together anymore
I was down there and you were up there
No matter where you and I were it was destroyed
Silence had won yet again
