Untitled (April 16, 2013)

A reflection of my inner self, at this moment.

Silence.

The sound

Between words

Never heard

Until gone.

So

Talked about

Yet never fully

Valued.

A companion

Only missed

By it's absence

In daily life.

A warning sign

Often ignored

Until too late

By those

Around us.

Until welcomed

With open arms

As the pain

Ends.

Reviews

[Russell Munroe]

I like this.

As I read it, I thought of Joni Mitchell.

"You don't know what you've got till it's gone..."

Well done.

Thank you, Russell.
