your silence speaks...

silence

your silence speaks volumes to me
of steely indifference that’s hard to bear
deafeningly quiet in its crystal clarity

it suits you now to break free
surrounded by crowds that adulate
your silence speaks volumes to me

pin-drop silence rules what cannot be
between us yawns an eternal void
deafeningly quiet in its crystal clarity

controlled by minions and brokers i see
all hungering to possess an atom of your mind
your silence speaks volumes to me

maybe you have evolved beyond love’s felicity
may be it was simply a trade-off for you
your silence speaks volumes to me

so this is how it is meant to be
no longer do you need the food of my soul
your silence speaks volumes to me
deafeningly quiet in its crystal clarity



picked out from a dusty caferati shelf - this is a villanelle by yours truly...
