...To Ignore A Silence...

Rating: 3.1


never ignore a silence
until you mean to
ignore forever
the bearer
of
it.

for the silence ignored
is more lethal
an insult than
the insult which
begot
it.


**inspired by rehan 's 'silences'**

This is potent in its simple, painful truth. Only a fool would suggest otherwise. Well said. Christine
