continue in silence by Angela Hanskajealousy, anger, envy
all rise up to claim my thoughts
all naught but a few hours ago
I forgot my worries
yet now, as you ask
"Are you okay?"
the light hath died from mine eyes
laughter falls heavily from my lips
my heart hath stopped its merry dance
I feel an outcast, ignored
yet I will not speak of this to you
for thou art my best friend
and to speak such ill begot words
would only damper your spirits.
so nay, I would not speak these words to you
and continue in silence... 01/29/2003 Posted on 03/17/2003 Copyright © 2025 Angela Hanska
