Silence
3/9/2001

the whisper of trees
the absence of noise
serenity
Oh, how I dream of your peacefulness!

Running away from the world,
I hide myself in your comforting arms
Sheltering me with your soft glow
A life without worries

Your fingers begin to slip slowly from me
I reach out
finding your comforting void has vanished
I cry out
fearing my existence without you

My feelings fade into the angry cries of the city
Reality
has descended upon me
The Moment is lost
