Echoes

The Scream
Echoes still
Even though it is silenced
You were gone before you were gone
Leaving my heart a lonely
Darkened home
Denied by your words
Shunned by your smile.
But there is a lesson here-
Even if it still is untold
For every story has an ending
Every tear dries in the wind.
Deceit can cry
Louder than any heartache
Silently behind eyes where truth hides
Itself
Learn it in a smile
Made of glass
Learn it in arms
That hold nothing but the memory
Learn it in your heart
That's silenced by betrayal
Learn it in your eyes
When the obvious stares into them
unblinking
