is silent
published: 2011-04-23she hasn’t seen her daughter for eight years.
life is a temple built on fears,
for some.
for others it is
a wasted opportunity.
noisy pleasure
that yells and kicks and screams:
there should be more to life.
more than simply this?
but here it is.
a woman was once somebody’s child
her mother left one day
while she had asked her to stay.
mother now waits for her.
she is afraid.
fear,
my dear,
is silent.
