Silence

No answer to my pleas
No answer to my heart
My lover has gone silent
I can only guess the reason
But silence can be deafening

In a dream she came to me
Told me not to worry
That she loved me still
Was it wishful thinking?
Or her ghost letting me know

I have no way of knowing
If it is my wrong doing
Or simply her fear of my love
Or worse her very demise
My heart aches to know

I wept for days
Wept for the heat of her kiss
The sound of her voice
The feel of her touch
I have only silent memories

My lover has gone silent
The sun of her being now dark
I am glad I loved her
I am sad to let her go
The silence grows
