She Lives In My Silence

She walks beside me as silence,

I do not see her, nor do I hear her.

But her presence is always felt,

As she lives inside my heart as it’s beat.

At first, I thought it was just physical,

Like others say, maybe some inner chemical.

Giving my heart a new excitement,

But later I realised it was divine.

Some of her memories make me laugh,

All those small fights we had.

Turning our faces away in anger,

And then getting back together again.

Whenever I pause to think about her,

I feel something I cannot explain.

The time we spent together,

The love and care we shared, it feels alive.

She stays in my dreams forever,

A world for her I created within.

I can see her calm face clearly,

And still hear her whispers of my name.

This is the beauty of my love,

It just does not end easily.

She never truly left my life,

She walks beside me as silence.
