Listen, and tell me...what do you hear?
Only silence....
No voice to recall and reminisce of past happiness
Only the utter stillness awaits, to greet me with open arms
As winds lie motionless and the waters placidly still

A stranger's name written in the great book, instead of mine
I shall not stand idle with a held tongue!
And just who is this stranger sporting a rather, insidious grin?
Perhaps, it would be wise to cover your ears, because the breaking of my silence is about to begin...
