Hearts that used to beat as one
Are now distant, sullen and taciturn.
Life when burdened under heavy expectations
Bury feelings without communication.
Stony silence engulfs the soul, like a moonless sky
Pain echoes deep, a mournful sigh.
Silent tears bring the night apart
When dreams are scattered in parts.
Silence that grip the lips
When words are exchanged in a slip.
Life becomes a hollow shell
When joy fails to dwell.
Yet, a mirage of hope brings a flicker of life
Closing the chasm of emptiness with faith combined.
