Silence
(written January 23, 2007)

Blood is the gift I gave you
And in return
Silence
Like standing naked in snowfall
Waiting for God to arrive
To give me something
Anything to believe in
Besides the pain of each snowflake
Hitting my frozen, bloodless skin.
And I wait
waiting for you to feel my silence.
My silence
Like the sun burning a summer's heat
Melting, fusing me into the ground
So I can feel everything offered
Including you
My blood boiling over
I believe
It must melt your silence.
But all I see
Are footprints left in the snow from when you walked away
Leaving only silence behind.
