A Silent Death

 

"A Silent Death"
~ ~ ~
I have led an average life
Never wanted much
Maybe once
Someone's touch
~
I have not held a child
While it was sick or dying
I have felt remorse
Spent many nights crying
~
There are many who could point
Point at me and say
You have never had loss
Not in that way
~
That so many experience loss
Lively-hood or limbs
For me it all comes back
To then
~
Something must have killed it
Like a zombie walking away
I remember a silent death
As he had nothing to say
.
