Silence Silence is my only solace
A quiet reprieve from the sting
Of the unrelenting words
Painful reminders of the past
All the bitter affirmations
Of being unworthy of anyone’s love
Silence is my only solace
From people’s insanity
Human cruelty, inexcusable
Grows with the times
No words can hurt me
When I am too far away to hear
Silence is my only solace
When I feel I can’t go on
A peaceful oasis in the barren desert
At times when I feel alone In silence I know I have myself
My thoughts soothe the hurt
And I have awhile to lick the wounds
That cut deeply into my heart
And we’ve gone too far
When silence is the only solace.
May God bless you richly with success!
