Silent
Silence speaks the truth
We cannot bear to hear
When years have passed
And nothings left to share
Silent partners who once
As lovers could not break their stare
Look beyond their lives
A couple cannot hide the truth
When conversation dies
Or wake the love that’s lost inside
Through lies
A bitter wine is poured
Time does not renew that vintage vow
And love it takes a final actors bow
Breaks in two
The curtain call falls on yet another stage of life
The fairytale signed upon the poisoned page
Does end in paper cutting like a knife
Through photos sadly kept
Swept into a box
Sealed without the heart
Which without the key
Now firmly locks
And falls apart
