Silence

Everything I tried to say but couldn’t

Everything you wanted to but wouldn’t

Places that I might have been

Wonders that I could have seen

I could do anything I wanted to

Powered by the thought of you

Emotion, twisting crowded din

Somehow leashed and bottled in

Songs not sung.

Lie undone.

And now that you have hurried hence

I am left with …
