Loudness

Years changed, seasons too.
Gold turned to ice,
Sweetness transformed to bitterness,
Life turned into a death, all too soon.
Nothingness was filled with silence
Got too loud to bear.
All else drowned.
And he stood
On the rugged cliff
With nothing more to say
But
I love you.
She waved herself away,
Let her tears say all the words
Silence swallowed down.
Words would not escape the thoughts
That brewed behind her
Frozen crisp smile.
Life could not play fair.
Her golden butter cup hair
Drew itself to the stars
As it pined for something nothingness could give.
She smiled a quiet smile.
Although all of herself wrenched to protest
To turned away
Without a final goodbye.
And he stood
On the rugged cliff
With nothing more to say
But
I love you.
Wind rode on a steady horseback,
Swift and quiet and sorrowful,
It stole away the night
And took his heart afar into the depths.
The wishfulness within would not have the courage
To change anything.
Sparks held so brightly in his eye
Burned one last time
And
Faded.
Winter froze over his heart
Imprinted her face on his soul.
Steel grey eyes looked across the valley,
Wet with unformed words.
And he stood
On the rugged cliff
With nothing more to say
But
I love you.
And the house had no more life.
Cinnamon had once been infused with love
Now tasted bittersweet, wet, empty.
Warm cherry walls loomed over restless nights.
A single hair on the pillow,
All that was left behind
Along with a haunted past of a dream
And still
The silence
That chokes all else.
And he stood
On the rugged cliff
With nothing more to say
But
I love you.
Tears were no comfort,
They strung as the fell.
Screams would not break
The stillness locked within the air
That hung like
Cracked mirror.
Nothing would cease the
Rampaging madness of his
Still head.
Alone and silent, together and still,
Nothing was left
But to walk away.
No one stood
On a rugged hill,
Nothing more to say.
“But
I love you”
Is still heard in the wind,
And still she cries,
The silence too loud to hear anything else.

Very nice, the imagery's amazing. Communications' a major key in any relationship, unfortunatly myself, I don't possess that skill either. Great write, and welcome to YPDC, can't wait for more writing.

Brilliant! I loved the way this poem reads. I agree with
Cassy, the imagery is amazing. Very well written!
"The silence too loud to hear anything else."
How very profound indeed!
