Solace of Silence
|  |
|
I woke this morning
and the solace of silence
has gripped my heart,
my feelings no longer hostage to the roar
that once guarded my thoughts.
Though I perceive solace of silence
shall I ever perceive a dawn of peace?
Entrenched vivid memories and occasions
of thought that time will never erase,
though they only bring to mind
a yesterday not so long ago
a solace of peace shall not I find?
The ones I have a weakness for
may see scars upon my corpse,
but thoughts and memories are a burden
I shall keep guarded,
though afflicted, the battle wages in me
I decline to yield others this burden I endure,
I will carry these memories and occasions of thought
to my grave for the battle ends with me! | By Bill Chance
