The Silence

the silence
is roaring
is digging
is empty
is ready
is silently
silent

the silence
is killing
and burning
and beating
is breaking
the windows
and empty
and silent

The silence
the silence
is silent
still silent
the silence
sweet silence
bitter silent
tears of silence
is silently
falling

in empty
cold air
the silence
is raining
and reigning
and resting
and killing
the muse
and breaking
the lyre
cracked lips
of the poet

the silence
is golden
no more.
