Your Silence

I hear your silence, 

I feel your absence as much as the needed rain.

I won't persuade you, 

My intention is, as always,  to never cause you unwanted pain.

The years don't matter, 

As time runs out, the gap should close, I wish it would. 

I hear your silence, 

Life will continue, clocks will not stop, the tides will turn, my love will linger, as all stories should.
