The days drift by slowly
But as I get older
Ever more wiser
I still question why
I'm not stronger
Just vulnerable?

And the answer is illusive
And hides behind the silence
And the question asked
Is asked to unheard silence
And the silence never answers
And the question fails
To be recognized

And I just live on knowing
Nothing about my insecurity
And why I can't trust freely
Why I go unnoticed except for cruelty
And why all these things
Damage me from the outside
To the inside
From within to skin

That question never will be answered
And I have to wonder
The silence never answers [comments] => 2 [counter] => 177 [topic] => 21 [informant] => essentially9 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )

Silence Never Answers

And the silence never answers

How true... how true...
U can talk to thin air...
But the silence never answers...
'Cause it has not a care...

Good poem... loved it... thanks for sharing...

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
