silent tears
in the silent rain
silent sorrow
and silent pain
silent shame
from a silent past
silent suffering
now the silence is cast
silence remains
in a silent heart
can you feel the silence
rip your soul apart?
silent day
and silent night
silence continues
its silent plight
silence holds
and silence ties
looking down
with silent eyes
yet here in the silence
He speaks to me
my soul is listening
I can clearly see
the deep love He has
in His heart so dear
His silent presence
is love ever near
beautiful silence
I will embrace
this quiet time
this silent space
and into forever
silence will remain
a sign of His love
and His kingly reign
silently His heart
melts into mine
and our hearts become one
in a silent shrine
Beautiful!
