While I'm not fond of overly short poems, this one is very poignant and your painting is perfect.
Maybe while I'm listening to old music every night and find myself falling asleep during it, maybe one day when my hearing is gone totally, I won't wake up.
Your ability to move us with such concise poetic wordsmithing is truly a talent I admire and respect. Coupled with your inspiring paintings, you are truly a gift to this site. I hope you get the readership your work deserves, for it never ceases to motivate this poet. Your "silence disappeared" is inspired. Kudos.
