Silence/Goodbye
SCILENCE By: Kena'i
Silence echos through the halls from the words left unsaid
Advertisement
The Skin crawling silence fills the room consumes the light with a silence so thick it suffocates you in its icy grip
With a taste so bitter sweet you wouldn’t dare let a word Escape your lips
Fear so blinding you barely see your way through the mist
The Familiar stinging from the tears fearing to escapeShaking hands you take a breathSucking in the salty air two seconds too manyThen you speak , while down on bended kneeMuster up the courage to release whats on your chest
And you cry , you scream in Frustration You pour your soul out
Then you smile tears of joy pours from eyes
Because for now you know The silence was meant for reflection and nothing more than a battle
A fight a struggle So you come bended knee Head bowed With a smile You feel peace For not only the silence But the assurance that this too shall pass

GOODBYE By: Kena'i from Ashley
Goodbye, That’s always the hard part The ache left in my chest from your absence
Your smile , Your laugh The light you brought to the ones who loved you
And the emptiness you leave behind with your exit
Sometimes I find it hard to breathe hoping you’ll wake me from this nightmare that feels like an eternity
But you won’t
So I’m left with this tear filled smile Remembering you
Your laugh , Your smile The memories you left with us
My garden Angel Watch over us
Continue to give us the strength to keep moving
To grow And know your death is not in vain
So now as this poem comes to an end And we prepare to lay you to rest
We know this will never be a goodbye But simply a love you
As we bow our heads and feel your tears from the skyFor Nyesha We love You
