A silence,
Growing vibrant
Brighter in your eyes,
Saturating, louder now,
Taking charge stealing minds,
Edging across our sights,
Rich and full and heated.

A silence like cracks of light,
Few and far between the time,
Wiring our jaws,
Biding our lives,
Keeping the fire alight.

Painless words,
Fritter away idle eyes,
Seeking out,
Victimize the quiet.
So,
The silence.

The author's comments:
Sometimes silences can say a whole more about love than words can.
