In Your Silence

In your silence

Agony walks barefoot on glacier ice.

I thought I was covered by the blanket of your love

But only tissue-sized protection was lent.



Desire gnaws

But it is merely a net slung across

The wild and rushing waters of drowning want and need.

It will never be enough, without true love.



I am alone

Frozen in a silent locked vault of pain.

Deceit and despair are maliciously efficient.

The barrens - tundras of wilderness - claim me.
