Silent Lambs Poem by Giselle Joseph

Silence
crept between us
signing
I don't comprehend
mute melody
echoing through
a transit mind
searching
the wilderness
left behind.

Painful cries
aches the heart
which befriends
the stranger
whom you now see
blinded
by the fact
that
you still
love me.

A tongue
once so sweet
grew
cold
bitter
sour
to behold
when would
your essence
unfold?

Silence
crept between us
piercing our love
as the blood
flows
to the bare floor
slowly
we descend
our eyes
shut,
silence
has killed
our love.

Look
there it goes
soaring
into another love
seeking
reprose.
