I Lived To Love The Silence. Read Count : 85

Category : Poems

Sub Category : N/A

never have i ever found love so real

never have i ever wanted so badly to feel

never have i ever laughed at a joke

never have i ever spoke. 


i lived to love the silence

of those around me. 

the silence, the pain, the memory

it's never a choice when you don't have a voice. 


and i began to wonder if i'd ever get out of my class cage, 

if i'd become his trapped bird;

useless, a science expiriment. 


i lived to love the silence 

of those who had the audacity 

to break down my spirit. 


now i live to love you, 

and your noisy silence. 

though it doesn't break me up, 

nor build me up

it just inspires me to build myself up. 


i love to love you, 

i love to smile, i love to dance,

i love to shout, i love to know. 

but i should warn you,

i also love to let go
