deciphering silence …





you and i


shielded by silence

barred from ourselves

insured against feelings


exiled hearts

building ramparts


a berlin wall

that may fall


so my friend

lay your head

upon my chest


and let my fingers

run through your hair


lulling you gently

to rest


life is far too short anyway

to squander even a day


so rest

my friend


rest


and lay your head

upon my chest …
