There is silence all around
Only silence
Nothing but silence!
The door of the love hut is shut
And the front yard ---
doesn’t open its arms to me
The rose at the side ---
doesn’t smile to me anymore
The message board looks to me
blankly
My deepest heart asks,
Why is this torturous quiet?
Why is this deafening
silence?
Is it death? Is it death?
The silence replies, ‘Yes, it
is!’
The door says rudely,
“Don’t come here any more --
seeking life!”
