Silence between the gusts of wind
Sighing with every small step I take
Silence after I push the earth away
Silence before I hit the ground again
Silence between my thoughts
Now becoming calmer,
Though everywhere I am,
You are
Still being part of them

Silence between our worlds
Slowly drifting apart
And I allow for it
And let you drift off
To where?
I don't know
Nor where I stand
Nor who I am

I have only known the lament
Of you not being part of my life
As it manifested into my mind
I silently suffer
And mourn your present absence
Just as one day I will grieve
In silence
Your absent presence
