Silent
 Cry

So
 sudden
 when
 it
 comes

the
 thoughts
 of
 missing

the
 emotion
 so
 numbing

staring
 at
 nothing

I
 cannot
 stop
 them

tears
 come
 from
 nowhere

Confused
 on
 how
 it
 starts

words
 hung
 in
 the
 air?

pictures
 flashing
 in
 my
 head?

I
 wish
 I
 knew

so
 I
 could
 stop
 it

the
 sense
 of
 being
 sad

The
 waves
 come
 and
 go

sometimes
 I
 do
 not
 miss

for
 what
 seems
 to
 be
 an
 endless
 time

then
 the
 emotion
 comes
 to
 stay

memories
 are
 all
 back

that
 are
 there
 since
 you
 passed

all
 remembered
 in
 a
 silent
 cry
