Title: Silent Comfort
Writer: Bonnie L. Baker

To comfort one is hard
when they say nothing
And you don't know what to do
They say silence is golden
But to me it is deafning
It just leaves you more time to think
what you end up thinking is always the same
the same depressing thoughts that feel your head continually
their sorrow makes you see that you to feel the same
so the silence feels the air
while you both just sit there
speaking no words and only wanting comfort
but still no one speaks
