Silence so deep, it echos through my soul

Silence so dark, it blinds me more

I wish it would stop, I wish it would go

I wish to break it, but how can I so

I smile, I laugh, all seems fine

Inside I cry for no reason or ryhme

Gone are the days when the moon would smile

Now the wind is cold and the nights are blind

The past was beautiful, the future remains unknown

Yester memories keep me smiling whenever I am lone

A warm hug, a bad joke, a stupid advice

How they all changed my life!

So much to remember, so much to try

Then why do I still feel like cry

I am blessed to have, if nothing else,

the memories of the past to help me smile.
