Title: Sound Of The Silence

Poem: The cold air falling on my face
I haven't talked to you in nearly sixteen days
Counting smoke rings
Escaping the sound of the silence

Memories of your tongue caressing my back
Your breath on my neck
Feeling the seconds between heartbeats
Take another shot to drown out
The sound of the silence

The coldness in your eyes
The way you ignored me as I cried
Broken tears streaming down my face
The way you left without elegance or grace
Hearing my head pounding with the sounds of the silence

Loving you til I bleed
Aching needing wanting
Fearing your hand but wanting your touch
Just to escape the sound of the silence...
