No vibration

A stillness in the air

We are not speaking

I'm wondering if I should care?

Is it temporary

or is it the end?

I thought we'd been through it all

could it be the end?

Motionless in the bed

No jiration

no love makin

backs turned

pillows clinched

but not in the erotic dance

Shudders in my mind

at the thought of my other

halfs absence

Can I make it without

his good loving caring self.

I have put too much love

into this thing

Now we must be angry

for this is the silence

that allows us time to think

what would life be like

without him or her

could I possibly endure

not being in their presence

anymore?

Silence

I need time to think it over.

space to see if I can make it

without my soul my lover.

Pause and reflect over

the years

that we shared all of the ideas,

fears, plans, goals, dreams of happiness

that we held in our bosoms

this silence allows us time to think

can we actually fulfill them.

Now the stale tainted atmosphere

engulfs our hearts and minds

I don't want to be silent anylonger

I want to tell him that he's one of a kind.

But the pride

chokes my tender loving kindness

and we sit in the darkness

engulfed by the silence.
