Silence

Everything starts and ends in silence Light is only present in the absence of darkness Fire only exists in a world without water When we go no one will hear our story No one will sing our song No one will lament at our bitter almost Everything starts and ends in silence Even as we speak There are two people somewhere That have just fallen in love with borrowed time Moonlight kisses and stolen glances They will take up our space on the list of star crossed lovers They will dance in our streets Whisper our 'I love yous' Make our promises Nothing is permanent Fire only exists in a world without water Darkness is only present in the absence of light And they too Will end in silence
