Between Silences

In the time

between the silences

we find ourselves knowing

the something that we share

is more than enough

to verify our hopes and dreams

In the time between the silences

The hours flutter by

in incandescent luminescence

where we carry one another

to the comfort we hope to keep

In the time between the silences

we open thoughtful glances

into future's distant haze

and dance around the void

that only too soon comes

In the time between the silences

we gain strength for what's to come

the inevitable separation

which gives meaning to all these times

and to this space where we escape
