When Silence Speaks (genre: romance)

Indeed, it was a lovely day

Thousands of thoughts lay scattered

Only one of them could I choose to say

By my side, you were there

Silent, as if waiting for me to say,

Your eyes assuring me that you care.

Choice was tough, all the way

The tougher was the choice -

Whether to say or not to say

Silence. That's all what I said.

That moment, words seemed immaterial, 

Since every page of my soul had been read.

My eyes rested on yours, blankly I stared

Amidst blatant heartbeats,

Bare silence, we shared.

You smiled. You sighed.

With clouds as my companion,

I blinked. And we cried. 

With you and me, the clouds wept.

Our silence finally spoke up, and

A silent eternal promise was kept.

P.S. Silence is the language of heart. Words contaminate the purity of feelings. This thought made me compose this poem.
